Carlton students realize dreams through mentorship program
Students in Carlton Comprehensive High School’s drama program have found personal success mentoring their fellow students, and helping them in realizing their career goals.
For David Zulkoskey, the head of the Carlton drama program, helping students help other students is a proud accomplishment.
“I became a teacher because I enjoy working with young people, and I would like to think that part of the goal of education is to build a better tomorrow,” Zulkoskey said. “What better way than to see young people realize that they have an actual talent to teach, or realize that they want to help other people?”
Zulkoskey said he’s always felt people should take a drama class to not just better their public speaking, but also build confidence and learn how people interact with each other. He believed the class creates leaders who understand society’s social dynamics.
