What is the Future Shop Program?
The ESF Future Shops are a career and college guidance program working with high school students and non-traditional students to transition them into the next phase of life. In partnership with the Bartow County and Cartersville School Systems, an ESF Future Shop location is being formed on each high school campus where students will have access to additional resources to have intentional conversations and develop an actionable plan for life after high school. Services are also available for homeschool students and non-traditional students looking to explore opportunities in higher education and/or post-secondary career paths.
We are working with students to navigate the college, tech, or trade school process to include:
- Applying for financial aid through FAFSA
- College selection assistance - (cost comparisons of the student’s school selection)
- College applications/essays
- ESF scholarship application process – (application opens January 2023)
- Nation-wide scholarship searches
- Coordinating college prep workshops
- Creating a resume
- Job searching
- Making introductions to company leaders in collaboration with Bartow County Chamber
- Setting career goals
- Identifying transferable skills
- Exploring training opportunities for learned skills
- Seeking possible co-ops and/or internship programs with local businesses
- Communicating with military recruiters
