We will be hosting our Second Annual Career Day and we are looking for volunteers to share their professional experiences and inspire our students. We believe that hearing from professionals like yourself can greatly benefit our students by giving them insights into various career paths and sparking their interests for the future.
Career Day will be held on April 25, 2025, from 9:30 am to 11:00 am. We are inviting parents, guardians, and other family members to come and talk about their jobs, hobbies, or any other expertise they would like to share. You can choose to give a short presentation or even set up an interactive activity related to your field.
