Career and Trade Information
Father Judge recognizes that college is not for every student. It also recognizes the need and prestige of joining the workforce directly after high school graduation as well as attending one of the many military academies. This page is designed to provide parents and students with some general contact information for some of the apprenticeship programs as well as the contact information for the various armed forces. If your son has additional questions about joining an apprenticeship program or the military they can always request to meet with their guidance counselor. They will be able to provide more detailed information as well as put your son in contact with the appropriate person to explore this option.
