Purple Squirrel



Program

MINDFULNESS, POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY AND ENCOURAGING A GROWTH MINDSET

Schools, business and communities must work together in partnership to build a foundation of learning and to provide the resources necessary to help all youth acquire the soft and hard skills necessary to become happy, independent and productive citizens. We believe mindfulness, work ethic and teamwork awareness should begin at a very early age. It is never too soon to start teaching our kids to set goals and work hard to achieve them!

Let’s Work to Prevent bullying

Peak works diligently within our community and beyond to provide young people with the resources and information that empowers them for future life and career success. We endeavor to help young people grow up to be happy, healthy and productive adults. We should never forget: today's youth are tomorrow's leaders.

Peak’s Purple Squirrel Project also​ focuses on teaching youth the behavioral traits and qualities necessary to succeed in life and on the job.

Peak invests in tomorrow’s workforce by creating a bridge to life and career success for our current and emerging workforce, increasing awareness of employer expectations and improving job search, job retention and overall career success.

Peak Supports CTAE Programs!
(Career, Technical & Agricultural Education)

CTAE pathways provide students enriched curriculum, hands-on skills, leadership opportunities and community service activities that provide real world learning experiences. The classes feature hands-on projects and industry specific curriculum that increase the student’s awareness of the various career opportunities. A local skilled workforce is key for economic development, higher wages, and a stronger community. As the needs of employers are shared with educational leaders, the real world of work is brought to the classroom through this program.
