CVE Career Day ❤️🎓 📚 Every year, Center Valley Elementary hosts “Career Day” where students in all grade levels learn about local career opportunities. The day begins with a parade where all the students dress up in their future career attire! From astronauts to aspiring educators, these students are sure to have bright futures and great impact on the world! 💡 Students learned about the wide variety of careers available locally from classroom speakers and an outside rotation where students could look inside vehicles, see equipment, and get an in-depth look into jobs in fields such as construction, postal service, and emergency services. ♥️ Thank you to all the community businesses and leaders who helped provide these wonderful learning experiences for CVE students!
