Alumni and parents visit Greenwood for Careers Morning

Students in Grades 9 -12 recently had the opportunity to hear from alumni, parents/guardians and Greenwood staff at Careers Morning.

 

Speakers represented a variety of fields, including architecture, engineering, health sciences, banking, design and more. 

 

Careers Morning is held annually near the beginning of the course selection period to provide Greenwood students with the opportunity to think about their options for possible work and life destinations. Speakers are invited to share their personal journey to help students consider the many possible roads that people travel on throughout their careers.

 

“Careers Morning provides an invaluable opportunity for our students – hearing from the Greenwood community about different jobs and industries, various educational options, and the unique paths that people take in their career provides context and inspiration as students look to their own future after high school,” said Wendy Herod, Director of Student Success. “It’s our hope that Careers Days helps students consider the skills or experience needed for different occupations or postsecondary options, and inspires them to stay curious about the possibilities available to them.”

 

A huge thank you to the alumni and parents/guardians who joined us on Careers Morning.
