Meet MVR-III alum Kaeti Singleton, Class of 2010. 🎓
Kaeti works in Electrical Power Distribution in Pacific, Missouri. She is most proud of being a mom to her three children and the hard work and consistency she has put into her career over the past 16 years.
Kaeti says her experiences at MVR-III left a lasting impression on her life, from building lifelong friendships to participating in dance team and DECA, which helped develop her love for business and hard work. She also credits the A+ Program with helping her earn her associate degree at no out-of-pocket cost, setting her up for success while gaining valuable work experience.
Some of Kaeti's favorite memories include attending football and basketball games, spending time with friends, and enjoying all the fun that came with her high school years.
Her advice for current students: Don't get so caught up looking ahead that you forget to enjoy the present. Get involved, join a club, and make the most of your high school experience. You never know what doors those opportunities might open!
