March is College & Career Month at HFE!

During the month of March, Heards Ferry will provide students the opportunity to gain insight into various careers and expand their college awareness. Several exciting events are in the works including:

• Career on Wheels (PK-2 ) – On this special day (3/25), our students in grades Pre-K – 2nd grade will have the opportunity to be exposed to careers that utilize vehicles as a part of their profession.  We already have some fun vehicles lined up including a bucket truck, a Coke truck, and a fuel delivery truck just to name a few.   
• Career Stations (PK-2) – Students will get a hands-on experience when they visit the Career Stations classroom to learn about different career clusters.   Some past stations have included careers in healthcare, architecture/construction, visual arts, and STEM.
• Career Speakers (Grades 3-5) – During the month of March, each class will have several parent speakers come in to speak to the class about their career.  If you are interested in speaking to your student’s class, please reach out to the room parent.
• HFE College Display – On their way to lunch, students will be able to view a large display that features the various colleges/universities that staff attended. The students love looking for their teachers and finding out where they went to school! HFE Live will also feature fun and informative college & career facts throughout the month.   
• Door Decorating Contest – School pride will be on display as teachers and staff decorate their doors with fun facts about their colleges/universities!
