The 2nd Annual "Professional Etiquette Program," was held on Thursday, December 4 for 7th and 8th grade Delphos students. Organized by Delphos Middle School Counselors—Mrs. Alison Ross, Mrs. Nicole Chiles, and Mrs. Karen Grothouse, who is also a Delphos City School Board Member and St. John’s alum—the event focused on equipping young students with essential skills for their future careers. Through a series of informational sessions led by local professionals, students gained valuable insights into the hiring process, learned about professional behavior and workplace expectations, and explored strategies for achieving success in their future careers. This collaborative effort not only emphasized the importance of communication and professionalism but also laid a strong foundation for students' workplace readiness. Great job, Wildcats!
