course will focus on helping students explore their postsecondary options—whether finding a job or going to
school—and the steps needed to make a successful
transition. Students will participate in job search
activities, research career fields, develop a resume,

skills and concepts for the upcoming school year.
k OUTDOOR PHOTO JOURNALING
July 15-July 19 • Open to: LE / ME / UE
Instructor: Maggie DeLoach
Note: An alternate version of this course, designed for older students, is being offered the week of July 22 to July 26.
Get ready to explore some of the beautiful Bay Area parks

is a treat for movie lovers and foodies alike.
k BRIDGES: LIFE SKILLS WEEK
July 15-July 19 • Open to: HS and graduating seniors
Instructors: Meagan Cameron & John Montgomery
Note: This course is designed with a two-week curriculum, starting the week of July 8 to July 12. Students may enroll for only one
week, though signing-up for both weeks is preferred.
For many students with LD, the biggest post-graduation
challenges aren’t academic. Often, they involve learning
how to live independently, balance a budget, cook healthy
meals, reduce stress, make friends, and prepare for life
after graduation. During the second week of our “Bridges to Independence” program, students will learn
the fundamentals of living independently through
hands-on, guided activities. Students will learn the
basics of budgeting, plan meals, shop, and cook.
Additionally, the class will have fun participating
in local leisure activities while learning to navigate
around town on foot and via public transportation.
