DETAILS:
On Thursday, December 9, the District is convening community partners to help recruit volunteers to confront two major issues:

  • Employment Opportunities: The Rochester City School District is currently facing a job shortage crisis. This consortium of community partners will work with the District to help recruit individuals who are seeking employment opportunities. 

  • Safe Schools: The District has implemented Fathers Initiating Restorative Engagement (FIRE) at Edison Career and Technology High School and Franklin High School, and are looking for more volunteers. Dads have already undergone training in areas of youth development, de-escalation, and restorative practices. Dads serve as positive role models for students at school during arrival, lunch, and dismissal times.
