We are excited to announce that Willow Creek will be hosting our annual Career Day on Friday, November 13th from 9am to 12pm. The goal of this event is to introduce our students to a wide range of career pathways, and to help them understand the connection between what they learn in school and future career possibilities.
To make this day a success, we need your expertise! Many of our parents presented last year, and we would love to have you present again this year.
What Presenters Will Do:
• Give brief, 20-minute presentations to classes of students in grades PreK-4
• Share what a typical day in your field looks like, the skills and education required, and what you love about your job.
• Answer student questions
• Bring props, visual aids, or email a presentation to show on the SmartBoard
If you are interested in presenting, please respond to Ms. Puri at cristinapuri@tomballisd.net with your
