career day

Dear Families,

We are excited to announce that Career Day is set to commence in the month of February for all 5th to 8th-grade students. Kindly take a moment to discuss Career Day with your child.  Additionally, we request that you remind your child to approach the guest speakers with respect. It would be beneficial to review appropriate questions they may wish to ask.  Encourage students to ask questions that align with their interests and aspirations. These questions can provide valuable insights into various careers and help students make informed decisions about their future paths.

Below are some suggested questions:

    • How did you get started in your career?
    • What education and training were essential for your profession?
    • Can you share some key milestones in your career journey?
    • What does a typical day look like in your profession?
    • What are the primary responsibilities of your job?
    • How do you handle challenges in your daily work?
    • What advice would you give to someone aspiring to enter your field?
    • Are there specific skills or qualities you believe are crucial for success in your profession?
    • How do you stay updated on industry trends and advancements?
    • What opportunities for career growth and advancement exist in your profession?
    • Can you share a memorable or challenging experience from your career?
    • What are the major challenges or issues facing your industry today?

Thanks,

Lupe
