Communication platforms for high schoolers

[Maya McDowell]

Hello and happy Tuesday!

Have you found a successful way to keep up with previous high school students in your programs? 

For context: My org hosts high school interns over the summer, who are paid to care for their school garden and learn about future pathways in sustainability. Though our time with them is up when the school year rolls around, we often come across opportunities for other jobs, internships, events, etc. that we want to pass along to them. 

Sending group texts when the summer internship is no longer active can be burdensome, and high school students are not always on top of reading their emails (shocker!). 

Have you dealt with something like this? What communication platforms have you found to be successful when it comes to high school aged students?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
