career days

Job exploration events

Career days are school events where professionals visit to discuss their jobs with students.

The goal is to expose children to various occupations and help them imagine future paths.

Parents and community members typically participate, describing what they do and answering questions: My dad came to career day to talk about being a firefighter.
