Bringing Careers to the Classroom: A Look at LHS Career Speaker Week!

Each year Lowell High School’s College and Career Center, in partnership with Project LEARN, asks our community of volunteers and alumni supporters to take time out of their busy schedules and come to LHS to speak to our freshman and junior classes.


Speakers share inspirational stories of not only what they do in their careers, but how they got there, and the challenges they have faced and overcome. The goal of Career Speaker Week is to expand students' knowledge of different professions careers.


Through this annual event, we hope to open their minds and expand their future possibilities and aspirations. This year, we had over 90 speakers visit 80 different classrooms. We're so thankful to all of these local professionals who took the time they took to share their stories with Lowell students.

The Road Ahead: Project LEARN's 2025-27 Strategic Plan

On behalf of our partners at Project we're thrilled to be sharing their 2025-2027 Strategic Plan with you, which reflects a renewed commitment to expanded career-connected learning and collaboration to create transformative opportunities for Lowell’s future leaders. 


Project LEARN provides paid internships, skill-based learning initiatives, hands-on STEM exploration & career exploration events that ignite curiosity and prepare Lowell students for the future.


Their work is more than just hosting programs, however, it’s about building a strong, more resilient workforce that is capable of creating big change in our community. 

We hope you'll take the time to learn more about their vision for the next three years and how they plan to deepen their partnership with Lowell Public Schools.
