My name is Ms. Jeanne Turner and I have worked at Hickory High School since March 1998 and have served in many roles (teacher, school counselor, club advisor) within the school system but I am currently serving as HHS' Career Development Coordinator. I LOVE MY job because I can serve as a valuable resource to help students connect their dreams and goals to reality through networking and working with our business and industry partners.

Ask me MORE about how you can GRADUATE with MORE than a DIPLOMA and HOW it can help students achieve their postsecondary goals!!! It is the goal of the Student Services Department and the CTE Department that students are E3, meaning that each senior has a definitive plan as an ENROLLED student in a 2 or 4 year college, ENLISTED member of the military, or be EMPLOYED in a career of their choice upon graduation! For more information, please schedule an appointment with me so that we can work on YOUR plans!
