The Technology Department at G.Ray Bodley High School will be hosting a Technology and Engineering Fair on Wednesday, March 21st from 6:30 – 8:00 PM. The purpose of the event is to provide parents and students with the various career and educational options that are available to them in Technology related fields. We have found that our students are entering their senior year and graduating high school without a clear understanding of the educational requirements their future career path. We feel that it is essential to provide students with an opportunity to explore possible career paths and give them avenues to seek additional information about the courses that they have found an interest in throughout their high school years.
Currently we are trying to solicit help from professionals, like you that work in different Technology related fields. We are hoping to schedule between 6 – 10 different presentations, approximately 40 minutes in length, that focus on specific Technology careers. Each presenter will be asked to discuss their career twice throughout the evening. The target audience for this event will be students from the current 8th grade class, high school students, parents, and community members.
On the evening of the event I would like for the presenters to provide several pieces of information:
1. What skills should someone have if they wish to enter your field?
2. What level of education does someone need to enter your career area?
3. What is the anticipated outlook for your profession in the future?
If you would like to present at our event or if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me through e-mail (mthurlo1@fulton.cnyric.org) or phone (532-1044) at your earliest convenience.
