WHO WE ARE

Advocates, Advisors, Facilitators, Mentors & More

Our Schools

Within each of our member school systems in Hampden, Hampshire and Worcester Counties, our programs are directed by a Career Facilitator who is part of the school system’s staff. These highly trained facilitators work closely with the students who wish to be part of our program. They work to make their educational experience more relevant and valuable.

The Career Facilitators efficiently develop a plan for each student to further their knowledge and skills so the student can acclimate to their futures whether it is a career right out of high school or a higher educational opportunity.

Our Support

River East School to Career is supported through a grant from the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. In addition, we receive grants to support our mission from many private foundations. We are also the recipient of generous donations from many businesses and individuals who believe our work is making a difference in students’ post high school years. Throughout the year, we host various fundraising events. All of these support our work and our yearly River East Scholarship program.
