DCSD Legacy Campus Counselors are excited to offer presentations to students in our Legacy pathways that highlight essential skills in today's job markets. The skills that will be highlighted in the months to come are communication skills, professionalism, problem solving, and time management.

The Parker Youth Commission is a group of nine Parker-area students who are charged with, among other duties, planning and implementing educational activities for youth.

In November, they will host a free Young Entrepreneur Lunch and Learn event for high school-aged business owners (or soon-to-be business owners) in partnership with the Parker Chamber of Commerce and Redstone Bank. The event will occur on Wednesday, November 20, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at The Schoolhouse in Parker.

During the event, students will learn and discuss relevant business topics with local business professionals and will have the opportunity to network with them and other teen entrepreneurs. There will be two breakout sessions available for students where they can learn more about two of the following subjects:

• Overcoming client/customer skepticism and perceived inexperience
• E-commerce – platforms, best practices
• Finance - cash flow shortages, managing finances, investors, crowdfunding
• Managing time – balancing your business, school, and personal life, how much put into your business while managing other commitments
• Marketing – increasing brand awareness

Registration is limited! We hope to have students representing all Parker high schools and the maximum attendance for this event is 25 to 30 students.Register at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf08YbZPTNTl08BmejAaELfvyI3-LaI3h_S-LP2j_FPtA3sIA/viewform?usp=sharing

The Douglas County School Board has voted to refer a $490 million bond to voters in November. If the Bond is approved by voters, Douglas County homeowners will not see an increase in current property taxes. The Bond would allow the school district to restructure its debt in order to keep property taxes from increasing. For more information visit https://funding.dcsdk12.org/

Should the bond pass, the DCSD Legacy Campus would be expanding by 6 additional pathways to include: Construction Trades such as Carpentry, Electrical, HVAC, and Plumbing as well as Advanced Manufacturing, and Electric Vehicle/Hybrid Maintenance & Repair.
