Carmen Erickson at Idexx Laboratories

It can sometimes be hard to imagine the future from inside a classroom and that’s why we’re making a concerted effort to produce new events and experiences that help students to make connections between classroom learning and the “Real World.” On Friday February 14, 2020, our 10th grade students traded a day of classroom learning for a day of on-site learning at job sites across the state and beyond.

Thank you to all of the parents and guardians who took a lead role in connecting their 10th grade students to friends, neighbors, family members, or colleagues who were willing and able to host a student for a portion of their work day. And thank you to all of the professionals who welcomed our students to a range of job locations as varied as the students in attendance. Our list of job shadow locations includes:
