Thursday, November 9, was an incredible day at Boone Middle School as our 8th grade students embarked on a journey of exploration during the 8th Grade Explore Your Future Day! 🚀📚
Choosing from a variety of industries like aviation, sports communication, trades, education, and more, students spent half the day hands-on in the workforce and the other half in enlightening sessions with business professionals at school. 🛫🔧
The sessions covered vital skills—time management, professionalism, handling criticism, completing applications, navigating social media, attention to detail, customer service, and more. A big THANK YOU to the 23 businesses that contributed through engaging presentations and insightful tours!
To conclude the day, each student wrote a reflection in their Portrait of a Graduate portfolio and learned how to write thank-you notes. 📝🎓
We appreciate all the businesses, professionals, and educators who made this day a success! Our students are now more equipped and inspired for the exciting journey that lies ahead!
