Reaching Our Goals One Student at a Time

Several people visited Miss Schooler's English 3 classes this week. Liz Baughman (a Third Grade teacher at Windsor Elementary School), Chris Davis (a lawyer), and Tori Gurley (an NFL player for the Cleveland Browns), came to discuss their careers and how to reach one's goals. Additionally, Mr. Terry Roberson (CEO of Affordable Heating and Air) and Ms. Stephanie Finnell (of SVHS' Counseling Department) worked with the students in an interviewing skills, confidence-building workshop that was split by gender. This is all in conjunction with the unit "Reaching Our Goals", in which students have researched their individual career goals, written cover letters and resumes, practiced interviewing skills, and invited members of the community to address the class.
