FLA counselor and Lake Highlands High grad Copeland Norcross is organizing the school’s annual Career Day for Tuesday, May 21 from 8:15 to 11:15 a.m., and he’s even letting me chat with the kids about community journalism. Whether you’re a chef, a business owner, a medical professional, a repairman, a financial guru, a first responder – whatever – the kids would love to hear from you about the big, wide world of opportunity.

Reach out to Cope at 469-593-1944 or Copeland.Norcross@risd.org or to assistant counselor Nova Young at Nova.Young@risd.org to volunteer.

Forest Lane Academy is on Forest Lane between LBJ and Audelia. You can read more about Forest Lane Academy here.
