FBHS Partners In Education Program
Kick-Off Luncheon
THANK YOU to those of you that could come today. We certainly missed the partners that weren’t able to make it. Hopefully we can all get together again soon.
I wanted to share some minutes from the meeting and keep everyone up to date with where we are and where we are headed. Please click on the button below to view the minutes.
The BRANCH is going strong and we are very excited about the continued growth in our community and the changes that are happening.
Need to get in touch with one of our FBHS partners?
Do you know someone who would be interested in becoming a Partner?
If you have a friend or a business that is looking for a avenue to get involved at FBHS and you would like for a member to reach out to them, please send their contact information to Christy.carter@hallco.org.
Partners in Education
Partners in Education, created and coordinated by the Greater Hall Chamber of Commerce, is a joint effort with the Chamber of Commerce, Hall County and Gainesville City School Systems. Established in 1990, the program has supported the formation of over 250 business-education partnerships which serve to enrich the educational process and strengthen our schools. These partnerships foster closer links between schools and the business community and are essential in preparing a better educated workforce, thereby supporting economic development.
Mission: To establish and foster a voluntary cooperative relationship between the school and industry through their mutual adoption of one another and to support and enrich the existence of both.
The program helps to bridge the gap between the community and its schools for the mutual benefit of students and the residents of Gainesville-Hall County. Business partners engaged in the program will gain firsthand experience along with many benefits the program offers. Successful collaboration and cultivated relationships will afford both partners many rewards and satisfaction if the right components are in place.
Thank you to our Flowery Branch High School Partners in Education!
