ADAPTING TO THE PANDEMIC: CIRCLE THE SCHOOLS GOES DIGITAL

Salesforce engineers hosted a virtual career panel for students at Francisco Middle School

Throughout the pandemic, sf.citi members continued to participate in Circle the Schools. In 2020, sf.citi members NextRoll and Salesforce creatively adapted their longstanding tradition of hosting career panels for students at June Jordan School for Equity and Francisco Middle School (their respective Circle the Schools partners). To do this virtually, employees at both companies recorded themselves talking about their pathway into tech and answering questions submitted in advance by students.

Circle the Schools is shifting the paradigm—bringing the leaders of our city into our classrooms to truly cultivate the next generation of innovators. We want students not only to better understand the opportunities available to them in our great City, but to get to know who these leaders are so they can see themselves in those roles—and that’s the promise of Circle the Schools. I want to thank the partner companies from the bottom of my heart and on behalf of 57,000 students, thank you for making a difference!
