Current College Students Share Stories and Advice With Future College Students at SFIHS
By Guest Blogger Amanda Chui, Senior Teacher and Advisor, San Francisco International High School
Community – it is something that is naturally created at SFIHS. Students learn the value of remembering where you come from. During our last week of school this fall, our students and alumni had the opportunity to connect to learn more about themselves as future/current college students. Our alumni shared many stories and advice with our current seniors. The turnout of our alumni was so great that each senior had at least one alumni to talk to. The SPAN* program has allowed us to continue to connect to our students in many different ways, and to give back to the community they are from.
SFIHS grads who are now college students visit the high school to share their experiences.
Looks like the advice during the SPAN Alumni Panels was good.
It’s about community and connection as current/future college students listen to each other.
*SPAN is a program in the ACE Learning Center
