If you know an alumna/alumnus who would make a great commencement speaker, reach out to FHS Principal, Mr. David Jaworski at djaworski@ fmuthschools.com. Host a Co-Op Student or Intern Frankenmuth High School's Work- Based Learning program has a long tradi on of successful placements, da ng back to the program's incep on by Mr. Louie Weiss in the 1956-1957 school year. This opportunity con nues today because of generous business partners who hire or host FHS students in coopera ve learning or internship placements.

Seniors complete 12-15 hours in an area of career interest and work alongside a mentor in that field to gain experience and insight, and they display their learning during the annual Senior Symposium, held in April at FHS. In-industry experiences can include job shadowing, interviewing people employed in the field, site visits, volunteerism, and more. If you or someone you know would make a good mentor for a high school senior, we welcome willing mentors in all fields, and ask you to provide contact info using the QR code provided. This list is maintained by AP/ English 12 teacher, Mr. Aaron Toth, and FHS Principal, Mr. David Jaworski. Chris na Grossi ('97) Alumna of the Year Rita Jackson Champion of Children
