Mock Interviewing with Seniors

LTHS has the fortune of having a very key person on staff who is able to provide experiences for students that otherwise they wouldn't get.  In fact, such a  person doesn't exist in many districts.  Through the leadership of Mrs. Christian Herman, we have been able to provide our seniors with an experience that is directly tied to their futures.  School counselors, as well as business individuals within our local Williamsport community, serve as mock interviewers who interview students for a mock position in a particular business.  Students develop cover letters and resumes as a pre-cursor to preparing for their mock interviews.  Students learn about and practice the art of interviewing - the do's, the don'ts, and what to expect during an interview.  It has become quite popular among our seniors - they take it serioulsy and actually compete for the actual position!  Recently, one of Mrs. Beiter's senior English classes performed their mock interviews, and they looked and presented themselves in supervisor fashion.  Kudos to our students and our staff for producing an experiences for our students that likely occurs in few high schools!
