CAREER DAY! The Cove School needs your help! We want to provide the students with interesting and fun facts about various careers!

Career Day will be on March 16, 2017! The presentations will begin at 9:00 and should be over by 12:15. We need volunteers to present and explain the duties of their careers to our students in grades 1-12.

The presentations should last only 30 minutes (10 minutes for questions). There should be visuals (PowerPoint, Career related materials) to help the children understand what your career involves.

There will be 4 - 40 minute rotations

The elementary students are encouraged to dress in the career field they would choose as an adult! The junior high and high school students are encourage to dress business casual.

If you are able to help by presenting or providing a speaker, please contact Marla Altshul – Career Day Coordinator know as soon as possible by returning the attached form or contacting her at maltshul@coveschool.org, 847-562-2100 ext. 2319
