Morton/Uplift Virtual Career Day!
March Counselor Newsletter
Counselor Message
Usually this time of year we would have a career day at school for our students. This year, due to Covid precautions, we will be holding a Virtual Career Day for our teachers and students. It is never too early to start exploring. Please have fun with your child exploring all the different activities on this page while learning about different careers. This page is filled with different videos, songs and stories. Be sure to share with your child what you do for a career and discuss things they are interested in becoming. Education is an important first step in helping students to explore and learn and develop who they are, who they will be and what they will become.
