8th Grade Job Shadowing Information
8th Grade FJHS parents and guardians,
You currently have an 8th grade student in my Career Development class and it is time to job shadow!
Job shadowing will be on Wednesday, November 15. This is an exciting opportunity for our students to participate in and see what it is like in the real world of work. Your student has received a parent permission slip with shadowing guidelines and a mentor permission slip. You can find both permission slips and additional information here.
Once a mentor is found, you can choose to give them the mentor the permission slip in person or send through e-mail or fax. I have an example e-mail that students can use on my site above. I will also check with each student for progress and provide help if needed.
Both parent and mentor permission slips are due back Friday, November 10. They may be brought to class or e-mailed to me at hholt@farmcards.org.
Interested in being a mentor for one of our students? We would love to have you! Please let me know what you do and where you work and I will see if we have a student that would be interested in shadowing you!
Please let me know if you have any questions or need help finding a mentor. Happy Friday!
Thank you,
Hollianne Holt
