Fourth graders at Sanford Pride Elementary (SPE) recently had the opportunity to explore a wide range of potential career paths during the school's Career Day on Friday, May 10th.
The event allowed students to engage with professionals from various fields, planting seeds about the many avenues for future success. This wasn't about choosing a career but rather an opportunity for students to realize there are many different opportunities in the future.
The event exposed students to professionals from various fields, planting seeds of inspiration about the many avenues to future success.
The idea for Career Day stemmed from discussions among the fourth-grade teaching team - Jason Stone, Kristan Curtis, and Tricia Boivin.
To make the most of the enriching opportunity, students rotated through seven different career sessions in small groups, with teachers helping to facilitate each rotation.
The hands-on approach allowed students to hear personal stories and ask questions that sparked their curiosity.
