Job shadowing for the 8th grade Career Development students was on May 13, 2022. Majority of the students participated. Students that did not participate completed an alternative assignment. Several students took pictures of the equipment, building, etc. However, the students above agreed to use their pictures for the website. Students worked all over the state, some even traveled with their mentors throughout the state. Parents and students love the job shadow activity. Students were given a packet to take on the day of job shadow. Mentors and mentees field the packet out. Upon returning to school the next day, students were required to put together a slide presentation to present to the class. They are always excited to show pictures, videos and just talk about their experience. The presentation allows students to ask each other questions about their experience. Jamaiya Smith worked at Sylvan Hill Elementary School. The students were having a field day! Jacob Clenney got to shadow his favorite elementary teacher Mrs. Pruss at Pine Forest Elementary.
