School to Business Partnership
Half Hollow Hills Central School District School to Business
Partnership Needs You!
October 2023
Dear Parents and Guardians,
The Half Hollow Hills School to Business Partnership will again take place this school year.
The School to Business Partnership is a networking group with the goal of assisting our students
during their high school career and beyond as it focuses on helping students through many
aspects of a career in business. The partnership focuses and relies on such things as internships,
job shadowing, networking events, and mentoring. The success and impact of this program has
been overwhelming, but we are looking to continue to grow this program in Half Hollow Hills
and need your help.
We are always looking for individuals and companies that are willing to share their expertise and
knowledge with our students. The School to Business Partnership contains a network of people
currently in corporate America, and connections through the School to Business Partnership with
our community will enable us to utilize all these resources and create a large group to assist our
students.
Some of the topics planned for 2023-2024 include: networking, what a student needs to know
about the corporate world, job shadowing, mentor/mentee programs, scholarships, business
etiquette, resume writing and interviewing, etc. The School to Business Partnership will also
sponsor and host the 12th Annual Half Hollow Hills Shark Tank Competition known as “The
King of the Hills”.
If you or your company is interested in being a part of the Half Hollow Hills School to Business
Partnership, please register using this link: https://forms.gle/a7Y8LLHTbfA5c2vJ8
