8th Grade Career Day

On Tuesday, November 15th, 30 eighth graders from Wakefield Community Schools attended the Northeast Community College campus visit. The recruiting staff began the day with a fun activity that inspired students to discover their skills and talents. Once they had an understanding of their individual talents, the staff introduced jobs that would be best suited to them based on their results. Next, the students broke into groups and toured the campus, including the Path Hall dormitory, the fitness center, and the student center. The students even had a chance to meet two members of the NECC basketball team. Then, all students reconvened to ask current college students any questions they had related to college. Finally, the eighth graders enjoyed lunch at NECC's cafeteria. It was a great experience for all students.
