A friend of mine told me about students who attend the Albert Gallatin high school in Georges Township, Fayette County, PA. They were given a flyer last month announcing the recruitment of your children.
(Sorry, I don’t have a copy of the flyer available.)
The flyer stated:
PLEASE JOIN US FOR AN OPEN HOUSE ON CURRENT NATIONAL GAS & OIL OPPORTUNITIES! TUESDAY, JANUARY 29, 2013, 6:00 PM, ALBERT GALLATIN HIGH SCHOOL CAFETERIA.
The flyer went on to say: “Representatives from Westmoreland County Community College and Chevron will be on hand to provide information on the Natural Gas & Oil educational and employment opportunities.” These include “Early Enrollment courses and local short term certification programs offered in the Gas & Oil Technology field. A Chevron representative will go over the wide range of careers and employment opportunities in the Gas & Oil Industry.”
A box on the flyer announced: EARLY ENROLLMENT COURSE AVAILABLE TO 11TH AND 12TH GRADE STUDENTS AT ALBERT GALLATIN HIGH SCHOOL. Introduction to the Natural Gas & Oil Technology (NGT101) 4.0 Credits Tuesdays & Thursdays 2:15 PM – 4:15 PM Beginning February 19. 100% Tuition Reimbursement.”
Parents were advised to contact Sharon Berkshire 724-564-2024 x5311.
OMG! Wh
at would Betty Sutliff of the Wayne County Landowner and Member of Northern Wayne Property Owners Alliance (NWPOA) and guest blogger at EID/IPAA say about ACTIVE RECRUITMENT AND PAYING CHILDREN WITH TUITION REIMBURSEMENT????
I guess cupcakes, coloring books and computer games aren’t working?
Update 2/20/13: See Energy-in-Depth/IPAA, What about the Children?
OH MY! From Texas Sharon: Brad Miller – General Manager of Regulatory Affairs, Anadarko Petroleum.
We have to educate the agencies and the public. We have to manage all parts of the public. We need to go down to the grade school and high school level because that’s where the opposition groups are.
What will Betty say now?????
