Youth Career Fest
Around 30 Waldorf students attended the Austin Youth Council’s Career Festival on January 30th at the Palmer Events Center. Waldorf High School students had the chance to interact with more than 150 professionals from different companies and occupations, over 10 college representatives, and found volunteer opportunities and potential summer jobs. Special thanks go to Austin Youth Council members and Waldorf students Maeve Verroye ’19, Harper Smith ’20, and Megan Prakash ’20 for their work with this event.
