Aitkin superintendent highlights student workforce roles and college partnerships

In the interview, Morum discussed workforce-focused strategies that use school programs to connect students with local employment. She suggested students can help with van and bus routes and cited examples from her previous district where students worked custodial shifts before school. "I also had 2 students that came in and helped do custodial work in the morning before the school day even started," she said, describing these placements as practical training and a way to grow local workforce capacity.
