Seeking Career Speakers for May 9
Elementary school counselor Erika Barnett is recruiting volunteers who have a career that pertains to vehicles to showcase their career for the district’s grades 1-3 students at Careers on Wheels Day on May 9 from 9:30 a.m. to 12:15 p.m. at Munson Elementary School. It is the district’s second annual installment of the event after great success of the pilot event in 2022. The event hosts both Park and Munson elementary school students.
Careers on Wheels Day volunteers will share information about their career with students in a rotation of small groups. The 10-minute sessions will include time for Q&A and with the volunteer’s permission, time for students to explore the vehicle.
Mrs. Barnett stated, “Introducing younger students to careers and the working world early in their education plays an important role in child development and career readiness. We look forward to connecting and collaborating with community members in support of this exciting career education event.”
