On March 26th, the Mt. Healthy School District held its annual Junior High Career Day, providing an immersive and informative experience for 7th and 8th grade students. The event aimed to expose students to a wide range of career options and inspire them to explore their interests and passions.
The career day was divided into two sessions, with 7th graders participating in the morning and 8th graders in the afternoon. Students were placed into various rooms based on their interests and were able to rotate through different sessions throughout the day. We were excited to see the enthusiasm and engagement of our junior high students during Career Day. It's essential for them to start thinking about their future careers early on, and this event provided a valuable opportunity for them to learn directly from professionals in various fields.
The success of the event would not have been possible without the efforts of the Mt. Healthy School District staff, including Ms. Marks, Mr. Schellenberg, Ms. Gerber, Mr. Espinosa, and Ms. Dadabo. Their hard work and commitment to student success were evident throughout the day.
We extend our thanks to the presenters who took the time to share their expertise and experiences with our students. Many of the presenters went above and beyond, offering hands-on activities and demonstrations that truly brought their careers to life. The presenter rooms featured a diverse array of careers, including nail and skin care, UC student success, photography, barbering, chef, fashion design, engineering, real estate, IT/computer science, firefighting, and more. Students had the opportunity to interact directly with professionals and gain valuable insights into different industries.
