Another day at Mastbaum CTE High School, and more seniors are getting job interviews then ever. So far, our kids have interviewed and been hired for careers with PGW, SEPTA, Elliot Lewis, Fleet Management and the City of Philadelphia, Jefferson Hospital, Finishing Trades.. and now we have students selected to interview at PECO, thanks to a workforce program created by Keith Henderson, whose goal it is to assure our cities talent gets utilized within PECO workforce. Over 1000 people applied for these slots, and Mastbaum has graduating seniors selected for the first round of interviews! Over the years, we have 6 students hired at PECO all making a high salary and benefits, breaking the poverty cycle. We need companies to keep stepping up, and build their own workforce locally, with the skilled talent right here in Philly, from our trained CTE programs! This is how we build our communities up! The rigorous CTE programs at Mastbaum are recognized by industry, as our kids are now being recruited while they are still in school for high paying jobs! This is the success we have in Philly schools!
Fingers crossed that they make it through the rigorous process🤞🏽
