San Miguel School Career Day
 On Friday, March 1st, San Miguel School welcomed nine talented and successful individuals to the 2013 Career Day. This was the first time in over two years that San Miguel School has hosted this event meant to inspire our students to consider new opportunities and create their own path to success.
Presenters were asked to share their journey to finding their passion and their career path. Stories included finding their way through school, major moments of transition and advice to the students about how to get started and stay motivated toward their goals. The students completed handouts to reflect on the presentations and consider how it related to their future goals.
Those in attendance included:
• Miguel Barbosa, a Financial Analyst at a Chicago firm
• Mark Biondi, Vice President of Marketing at School of Rock
• Leonard Hollander, Executive Chef at Oak Park’s Marion Street Cheese Market
• Wei-Han Hu, a Chef at Chicago’s The Drawing Room
• Paul Koester, President at Happy Kid Toy Group, Ltd.
• Erica LaVire, a Nursing Professional in Chicago
• Pete McMurray, radio host at WGN 720 and NBC 24/7,
• Juan Orta, Manager of Station Relations & Sales Marketing at Telemundo
• Laura Sullivan, a Consultant at Deloitte Consulting
THANK YOU to all of our presenters for joining us in the classroom and showing them possibilities for their career after graduation!

San Miguel’s Back-to-School Drive is On!
In just a few weeks, San Miguel will open its doors at our Back of the Yards campus, welcoming 86 boys and girls who come ready to work hard.
Many of them have walked to school past dangerous places where gang members hang out. . . . They have sacrificed to return to class days before their public school friends. Each one knows that the next year will include long school days, discipline and hard work.

They come to have a chance for a future
Please help us prepare each student by making a special gift right now for our Back-to-School drive.
• Give a backpack full of all necessary school supplies for $35.
• Provide school uniforms for one student for $90.
• Send a student uniforms and school supplies for $125.
Our students take a risk to come to San Miguel. They are saying “No” to influences in their neighborhood that value crime and violence above an education and a future.
Let them know they are not alone on their educational journey. Give today so each student will be welcomed back with new uniforms, a backpack and all the supplies that help make learning possible.
Thank you in advance for your support of our San Miguel students. Your partnership today will help ensure they have an opportunity to work toward a future bright with promise.
Mail: send a contribution check to San Miguel School Business Office, 522 W Burlington Ave., La Grange, IL 60525-2200
