March is Career Education Month

In the past, Mrs. Profito and Miss. Megan has gone into the classroom to help jumpstart the career and college mindset.

Kindergarten to Fourth Grade

• We discuss different careers that are local to our families
• Examples are: Police officer, nurse, teacher, dentist, retail worker
• Basic information is shared on each job
• Approximate salary 
• Years of schooling
• General description

Fifth Grade to Seventh Grade

• Students take different career inventories based on their age level
• These career inventories help students explore different careers that they may have interest in

Due to the school having a closure due to health related reasons, we wanted to give you some ideas to discuss with your student(s). 

What can we do at home to help aid these conversations?

• Promote positive career/trade talk
• Discuss your own career/trade path with your child(ren)
• Encourage conversations with your family members and student(s) to discuss their career path
• Allow your student(s) time to research different careers/trades

Why is it important to have these conversations?

• These conversations allow career/trade explorations
• They encourage our student(s) to believe in themselves and have open dialogue with their family members
• These conversations will also assist with college exploration and the possible education path that can assist with high school planning
