David Crockett Middle School is pleased to announce that we will host our 11th Annual 8th Grade Career Day on Friday, February 9th, 2018. Our theme is “Building Future Leaders.” The Career Day Committee is looking for individuals who are willing to volunteer their time on our campus to speak about his/her career. Experience shows us that exposure to a wide variety of careers, prior to high school, is a tremendous asset to students when selecting high school courses or planning for their future.

Career day speakers will speak for approximately 25 minutes and have 6 different sessions. In your presentation, we ask that you talk about your career, the level of education required, including any special training or ongoing education requirements, as well as what makes you successful in your field.

 Level(s) of education required for your career path
 Discuss any special training or continuous education required for your job
