The last few weeks we have been deep into careers. All age groups have been tediously learning about the six career paths, roles, responsibilities.......the list goes on and on! There are so many topics to cover between Kindergarten and 8th grade, how does one possibly cover them all?? Well, I can't, so this year I have asked for some help. I decided to pilot a Community Partnership program in my school. Starting in the fall, I matched each grade Kindergarten through fifth grade with a career path. Then I found a business partner in the community that would be willing to donate their time to visit each class at least four times a year. With February now almost a distant memory, things of course did not get off the ground as quickly as I would have liked. Last semester ended up being a planning semester for the program, and this semester we have been able to have each community partner schedule two meetings between January and the end of the school year. Want to know more about the Community Partnership Program?? Stay tuned to learn more!
