CAREER FAIR, 2015
Dear Friends of Moreland Middle School, Because of you, over two hundred teenage futures have been positively influenced as their hopes for a substantial future have sharpened. Please read some of their journal responses which reflect their views about the evening. Whoever owns the Tesla made a huge impact! “I felt like all of the presenters really cared about us and our school!” ~Maral K. “I saw many people who inspired me, but especially Erica. She made me think differently about how my career will be and it influenced my motivation to keep learning.” ~Sebastian G. “Having this project changed my perspective on many things such as school, college, and my objectives. Even though I might change my mind in the future, for now, I have a plan that I’m sticking to.” ~Lauren L. “There is only so much you can see online, but when our pediatrician guest speaker was talking, she said that progressively interacting with a child from when they are an infant to an adult is a ‘magical experience.’ She repeated the phrase, ‘magical experience’ to emphasize how rewarding being a pediatrician is. This showed me how rewarding being a pediatrician is and being a pediatrician is something I want to be.” ~Samantha D. “I saw somebody who had a Tesla and I said, ‘Woah, baby! That’s a nice car!’ I instantly wanted to do good in school so that one day I could have one.” ~Kevin C. Thank you so much and see you in 2016! |
