Careers Project


6th Six Weeks Period
In the last six weeks period of the year, the students will work on a project called Careers. The objective is to examine their lives and the goals they will need to set to attain a job in the career they choose.

There will be three parts:
1) A resume
2) An essay
3) Presentation

The resume and essay are due Monday, May 18th. The presentations will be done in class during the last weeks of the school year.

The resume is to be written as a 22 year-old person that has been through 4 years of post high school education. The student should be creative and look to their futures to document what they will have done over the next 6 years to accomplish their goals.
