Confidence is a Skill Built in Detroit Lakes
January 6, 2023
Educational experiences for many can be quite difficult and vary significantly from person to person. As individuals approach the end of their high school years, some are conflicted about what options to pursue after graduation, while others struggle just to stay in school. For all, the possibilities typically come down to opportunities.
“Much of our intent is to help students figure out they do not necessarily have to go on to college,” said Dennis Weaver, Detroit Lakes Area Learning Center (ALC). “Learning a skill or trade through a program like YouthBuild in high school helps them realize there are well-paying careers they might enjoy.”
