WJBF Golden Apple Award Winner Amber Rahman

WJBF Golden Apple Award Winner: Amber Rahman, Midland Valley High School

Amber Rahman left the classroom for the front office. She’s had an amazing career in education and wanted to pursue another path to help her high schoolers.

“I’m very passionate about helping students realize that they need to figure out where their feet are going to go after they walk across our stage,” Rahman says. “So whether they’re going
for employment or enlistment or education, I really want them to have a plan.”

And the list of things to do after high school has really grown over the years.

“I think there are a lot more options and I think that we need to realize that it’s realistic that there are some students who are not looking to university as the next step. And so helping them to have the tools in their toolbox to make those decisions so that they can step off on a strong step, that’s really what we’re trying to do here.”
