ThINK (Things I Need to Know)
Everyone graduates from high school knowing how to read, write and do basic math. But to be a self-sufficient adult, those skills are not enough. In fact, they’re nowhere close to enough. Advanced skills in academic areas aren’t going to help a young adult out of every jam. What will they do when the car breaks down, they have nocturnal roommate, or have to make (and stick to) a budget? High school students can ease their transition to college and life after graduation by mastering some practical life skills.
That's where ThINK comes in. ThINK workshops aim to equip high school seniors with basic life skills they really DO need to know before launching into the "real-world".
