Merrimack Valley student Danielle Decicco holds a certificate presented to Sherryl Correllus and Durwood Sargent of Friends of Forgotten Children, where Decicco is a volunteer through MVHS. And no, she doesn’t have three hands, though that is a pretty sweet optical illusion. Representatives of local businesses and area agencies that host work sites for students in transition attended an appreciation event at MV on May 20. Students transitioning into adulthood gain work experience, invaluable self-confidence and life skills at these sites. The following Concord-area locations provided work sites this year: Friends of Forgotten Children, Hannaford Supermarkets, Havenwood-Heritage Heights, Merrimack County Nursing Home, Murray’s Farms Greenhouses, MVHS Food Service, NH Audubon McLane Center, Osborne’s Agway, Painted Blessings Ranch, Pleasant View Center, Robert’s Greenhouses, Merrimack Valley-Concord SPCA, United Church of Penacook, Women Infants and Children Program. Please contact Elizabeth Jewell at 753-1427, ejewell@mv.k12.nh.us, if you have any questions or are interested in hosting a work site in the future.
