Good morning All. I would like to inform you that all 8th grade Career Management students will be participating in a end of unit Interview project. For this project students will use interview skills learned in class in an actual job interview. Each student will be given a rubric and will be graded accordingly. Students will be mandated to dress in appropriate business attire for their interview as it will be part of the rubric used to grade their projects. Interviews will be taking place next Tuesday, March 20, 2018. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me. Thank you.
