Parent Support Needed - Career Cafe Workforce Event
Dear DMS Defender Parents/Guardians,
Our Counseling Team is looking to offer an opportunity for our students to learn about multiple careers available in the workforce. The goal is to expose students to various careers to help prepare them in making better decisions toward their future and their educational journey. However, we need your help…
We are looking for adults with various careers and a variety of educational backgrounds (i.e. 4-year college, trade school, military, educational certificate, and/or no college experience at all) If you are a parent who is willing to volunteer approximately an hour of time to speak for a couple of 20 minute sessions and share your career and educational journey with our DMS students, we encourage you to CLICK on the link below, complete and submit.
If you have any questions, please email rbayaca@tvusd.us with the subject line “Career Cafe Interest” or feel free to contact Mr. Bayaca (DMS School Counselor) at 951-699-8138.

Message from #ICANHELP:
As February begins, let's embrace the spirit of love and extend it to the digital realm by being responsible digital citizens. As we spend more time online, it's important to understand how our actions can impact others and the online community as a whole. From being responsible with our online presence to being kind and respectful in online interactions, let's spread love and positivity this month through our digital citizenship practices.
