Want to know how students in Marisa Cardillo’s senior seminar class learn to add depth to their resume?
They volunteer at Mother Marianne’s West Side Kitchen.
Marisa is an English teacher at Sauquoit Valley High School.
“We create resumes in this class early in the year and I noticed that much of the service experiences revolve around putting in the time here, close to home, with many familiar faces,” she noted. “I wanted to expose them to what it means to serve marginalized, often overlooked or forgotten groups within our greater community.”
So, in 2017, she reached out to the soup kitchen as well as a nursing home. Her class has been making an annual trip ever since.
