SCAEC TRANSITION TEAM UPDATES

STUDENT SUCCESS STORY

------------------------------------------------------------------

Kyle Newberg - Clovis Adult Education

High School Diploma Graduate


Kyle Newberg attended the high school diploma program at Clovis Adult Education from August 2023 to December 2023. Initially, he had doubts about handling homework assignments and he anticipated having strict teachers. However, he found the teachers and staff to be very supportive. He particularly appreciated the flexibility of Clovis Adult Education's hours. While looking for employment, Kyle worked with a transition specialist to create his resume, and was hired as a dishwasher/kitchen server at The Grove, a retirement facility. Kyle is currently enrolled in 11.5 units at Clovis Community College working toward an Associate's Degree in Information Systems. He also participates in college clubs and sporting activities.



Our Transition Team is here to help


Our staff continues to be available to assist students with community resource referrals, academic and career counseling, financial aid assistance, and college application assistance.
