Three Fayette County students have been selected to join Delta Community Credit Union’s High School Apprentice Program. Zahra Farhart and Morgan Lilley, seniors at Stars Mill High School, and Kyla Brown, a senior at Fayette High School, are among 21 students selected to work as part-time tellers at one of the credit union’s 29 metro Atlanta branches during the 2023-2024 school year. Farhart and Lilley are assigned to Delta Community’s Summit Point branch in Fayetteville and Brown will be working at the credit union’s Braelinn Village Branch in Peachtree City.

Since launching in 2006 through the state’s work-based learning program, Delta Community’s high school apprenticeship serves as a pipeline to bring bright high school students to the credit union to support its branches, while providing each student a valuable real-world job experience.

This year’s apprentice class marks a milestone in the program, with more than 200 students now having participated in the work-based learning initiative. Within the financial industry, Delta Community is one of the top employers of students through Georgia’s work-based learning program.
