All five Stafford County High Schools and Project Search interns participated in the nationwide Decision Day event, honoring the plans of every graduate to either enlist in the military, enroll in continuing education, or join the employment force. This event follows through on the promises students made to themselves in October at the school division’s Chart Your Future expo.
“Stafford Schools is committed to inspiring and empowering our students so that they are prepared for bright futures. Our promise to them is that we will invest in them from the moment they walk through our doors. Culminating events such as Chart Your Future and Decision Day are evidence of that commitment,” said Dr. Thomas W. Taylor, Stafford Schools Superintendent. “After careful thought and guidance from school counselors and family members, our students told the world about their intentions to be enrolled, enlisted, or employed upon graduation.”
