Hi there, we are getting ready to launch our first year of Project SEARCH in Alamogordo, NM at Holloman Air Force Base. We want to host a signing day for the new interns and would love any advice on how to plan this out and fun activities to include from other sites. Thank you!

We have never had an actual signing day. Our interns are accepted on a rolling admission. It would be fun to implement so I am also looking forward to hearing your ideas.

We have done this for the past 3 years-- we coordinate with the campuses and use their step and repeat that they use for athletic and college signings. We do a spirit line and invite the other special ed classes on that campus as well as parents. The administrators with the school district as well as our partners and site business administrators come also. We have new signage for this year that has the PS logo vs using a standard banner. I also create certificates that the interns sign (as well as myself) accepting them into the program. If anyone wants a sample please email me at dj.warren@tylerisd.org. I make them on Canva-- it's SUPER easy! I'm happy to add you to that file so that you can save it and personalize it to your program. Just let me know!
