Pinnacle
School to Work Programs
Pinnacle’s School-To-Work Program targets non-college-bound
seniors with barriers to employment.
Pinnacle’s goal is to provide each student with the tools
necessary to find a job, the security of having a job in their
community when they leave school, and the support services necessary
to retain that job.
