Career
fair sheds light on job opportunities
Nov. 26 - From becoming a veterinarian to an attorney, teacher
or police officer, high school students explored a variety of
career opportunities on Nov. 6.
In its second year, the career
fair organized by high school counselor Alicia Kirkpatrick,
provides freshman, sophomore and junior students with an
informal opportunity to meet with different professionals. This
year, fifteen representatives were on-site at the Duanesburg
Middle/High School to answer student's questions, describe their
career and employer as well as detail their educational
background. Read

Greetings
from guidance!
Sept. 10 - I hope
that you have had a fun and relaxing summer. I am eager for all
of the students to return and once again fill the high school
with life and learning.
Some changes have occurred
while you were gone. Mr. Silverman's office is now outside of
the cafeteria, in what was the Speech Room. Mrs. DeLuke is now
in my old office and I have moved to what was Mr. Silverman's
office. Mrs. Dickson remains in the heart of the school
Counseling Office.
This year, I want to
stay in contact with all of my students and parents as much as
possible. I openly invite everyone to contact me with any
questions, concerns or ideas. Together we are all a team working
to provide the best education and experience possible to your
sons' and daughters'.
This year, I would like to
reach out and include parents in more school involvement and
activities. There are many ways to be involved in your sons' and
daughters education and not all have to happen between 8 a.m.
and 3 p.m. This year I will try to keep you posted and informed
on options and possibilities available to you. |
