Onboarding
Of all the people I hated to see leave job corps, I wish Mrs. Reynolds would have stayed. She was always nice to me and the others. She never judged us for our lifestyle and stuff we did. she always showed us kindness and she cared.
- Samantha Tyler
You were there I didn't understand things. If something wasn't right you fixed it.
You always checked on us to see if we needed help with anything. You just made sure that life was good while I was in job corp.
- Jamie Lee Tumbling
Mrs. Reynolds was always a listening ear. She genuinely cared for us. She never talked down to us. She showed us how to love ourselves when no one else would. I am forever thankful for her.
