Career Club

The Career Exploration Club kicks off this week and this is a club that will meet during lunch periods to give students the chance to join and be a part of a club even if you don't have transportation to be able to participate in after-school clubs.

As a part of this club you will have the opportunity to learn about different careers directly from guest presenters.  The speakers will share insights into what a typical day is like in their job, what they like most/ least about their job, the education required to be able to have this job, and they will answer any questions you have as well.

The club will meet once a month.  The upcoming dates are: September 22nd, October 27th, November 9th, and December 8th.

While we would eventually like to figure a way to make the club accessible during all 4 lunch periods, for now, we will only have the group meeting twice during 4th period and 5th period lunches which are the biggest lunch periods.  So, if you have lunch, prep, options, or learning center during 4th or 5th period then this club will work for you!

The presentations from the speakers will only take half of your period so you will still hve plenty of time to eat.  The 4th period presentation will start at 11:40 and last for 20 minutes until the end of the period.  And the 5th period presentation will start right at the start of the period at 12:05 and be done 20 minutes later at 12:25.

The reality is that every career discussed won't be a good fit for every student, but the more you learn about different careers, the easier it will become to identify jobs that you do NOT want in your future which can ultimately help guide you to the right profession.  

Examples of some of our upcoming speakers already lined up include a Project Manager and Dental Hygienist.

I hope you will plan to join the club by coming to meet with us Tomorrow (Thursday) in the Auditorium!  Everyone is welcome!
