My name is Rachel Callahan. I am a graduate student at The University of West Alabama. I am working towards a special education degree (K-6). I live in Tibbie,
AL and I work about 30 minutes from my home in Jackson, AL. I am a Case Manager
at Jackson High School for the Workforce Investment Act “Winning Ways” grant.
This grant allows at-risk juniors and seniors to receive remediation and
tutoring. I also help these students with the Alabama High School Graduation
Exam, core classes, and work skills. My goal is to increase graduation rate at
Jackson High School. If they
successfully complete this program, they are eligible to receive full college
tuition for any two year program.
What a great job! Sounds challenging but rewarding! Good luck!
