Bradford Visit


A representative from Bradford School of Pittsburgh visited the classrooms of Renee Shaffer and Stephanie Reese in November to talk about Nonverbal Communication, Interview Skills, and the programs offered by their school.  Both seniors and juniors in Mrs. Reese’s class were able to experience the presentations and see an opportunity for post-high school education.  The presentations were interactive and informative and provided the students with an overview of skills they would need after leaving high school. The program on “Interview Skills” involved tips for dressing appropriately, leaving your cell phone in the car, and writing a “Thank You” note to your interviewer for taking the time to review your resume and meet with you. The nonverbal communication skills presentation focused on the subtle signs we send to people around us based on our facial expressions and body language in social situations. Both programs were entertaining and informative.
