Career Day at PMSS -Wednesday, November 7th, 2012

November 06, 2012
Port Moody every year holds a Career Day in November for all students in the school.  Each grade has a unique event. 
 
Grade 9 students are involved in the "Take Your Kid To Work" Program.  This allows students to shadow or work alongside a parent and learn about their parent's career.  Forms were sent home in early October to parents regarding the program.  For those students who are not able to participate are to arrive at school so they can be placed in the Grade 10 program. 
 
Grade 10 students:  "Economics of Success" is a program offered every year to involve students in their educational goals and possible career options.  If parents would like more information on the Economics of Success, please go to the link:  http://jacan.org/sites/default/files/2012-sept-efs-teacher-promo-template.pdf .  Our grade 10s have a full morning program from 8:30am to 12pm.  Lunch is available from 12 noon to 12:30 pm from the cafeteria.  Students are dismissed at 12:30 pm.
 
Grade 11 and 12 students will be going to classes all day starting at 8:30 am.  The schedule below is an altered bell schedule to accommodate a double block 4 for grade 11s and a double block 5 for grade 12s.  Our students will be attending a Career Fair that includes 14 Post-secondary institutions, 9 Program Spotlights from different institutes, and 10 After Grad transitons and Explorations Programs.  This is a great time for students to speak to all of the post-secondary presenters and collect related material. 
 
Grade 11s will go to the gym either in the first or second block 4 depending on their class.  Grade 12s will go to the gym for the Career Fair in either the first or the second block 5.  The classroom teachers will inform students which block that their class will be exploring the Career Fair.  Please see the schedule below:
