One of the key objectives of My Next Move is to ensure that graduating seniors are prepared for life after high school, whether that means entering the workforce or continuing their education. “My Next Move is designed to help graduating high school seniors identify and secure jobs after graduation,” said a representative from BCPS. “The event provides students who do not have post-secondary plans with an opportunity to explore careers and internships, as well as college options.”

The event will bring together a wide range of local businesses and organizations looking to recruit talented young individuals for various positions. For students who are uncertain about their next steps after high school, My Next Move offers an invaluable opportunity to explore different career paths and internships, all in one place. It also helps those students who may not have college plans yet but still want to pursue meaningful employment in the area. With an emphasis on career exploration, the event is designed to give students a clearer picture of the job market and help them take the first steps toward professional success.

“Through My Next Move, we aim to provide our students with the resources and support they need to transition into the workforce successfully,” said a BCPS administrator. “This event connects students with employers who are eager to hire them, and it helps students discover potential careers they may not have previously considered.”
