Free speaker helps students to be career ready<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Dearborn Public Schools middle and high school students and their parents are invited to a lively presentation from a nationally known speaker connecting the dots between education and career success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The talk, titled \u201cWhy Should We Hire You? Turn Learning Into Earning!\u201d helps draw connections between decisions students make today and their college and career success tomorrow. The presentation will be held on Thursday, March 12, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at Edsel Ford High School, 20601 Rotunda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brooks Harper\u2019s high-energy, amusing presentation has made him one of the top career readiness speakers in the country. The talk will look at why every day is an interview and an opportunity to turn learning into earning. The presentation also will encourage students to discover, develop, network and sell their skills and abilities and to show that they can bring tangible value to the workplace. Other themes include discovering the power of gratitude and learning to manage stress and avoid burnout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The presentation is being sponsored by the Academies of Dearborn. All three traditional high schools in Dearborn Schools now use the academies model to encourage students to start exploring career fields while still in high school. The Academies of Fordson started a few years ago, and Edsel Ford and Dearborn High started their programs with this year\u2019s freshmen class. The talk is open to all Dearborn Public Schools high school and middle school students and their parents or guardians. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Edsel Ford High School is providing a school bus to transport students and parents from Salina Intermediate at 5:30 p.m. to the high school for the program and back to Salina at 7:30 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
