Papa John's Training Worksite

June & John Christopherson own and operate Papa John's Pizza located at 1501 Stillwater Blvd. North in Stillwater. For the past 2 years Papa John's has provided a job training site for our students to participate and learn what is required of maintaining employment at a local business.   Students complete job tasks required of employees and learn to overcome any obstacles they may encounter during their training.  A job coach is provided by the transition program to assist students in problem solving and monitoring student progress.

Currently, John Lindeberg and Daniel Donahue are completing the 6 week training program. Nevyn Pflugradt and Jaden Phelps also completed the training program this school year.  Thank you Papa John's for the commitment to training young adults in the world of employment in our community!

Hunter Starts Cosmetology at 916

Hi my name is Hunter Marcaccini and this is my first year in the program. I joined 916 a month ago at the start of second semester and I'm doing Cosmetology. I started the class with the unit on Nail Technician and I really like it so far.  I am doing the class online, because I want my parents to be safe. My mom has asthma and my step dad has diabetes. I just want them to be safe so they don’t get COVID-19.

Cosmetology is really good so far and I really like it a lot because, then I can do my artwork with nails. If I work really hard then I can do great with my artwork and art is my passion. I really want to be an artist. And next year I want to do Cosmetology Hair and Skin class for the year. I want to try new things that I have never done before, so I want to do it. I like trying new things in life like Cosmetology because it is challenging. I am also having fun with it and working really hard. Here are some examples of my work so far this year. And if you are a student and want to learn more about the class click on the following link to learn more! https://careertech.916schools.org/programs/beauty/cosmetology-nail-technician
