National Groundhog Shadow Day

Various locations throughout Miami Dade County

National Groundhog Shadow Day supports student learning taking place beyond the four walls of a classroom and provides students with the opportunity to see the connection between academics and the demands of the workforce. 

This is part of the district’s partnership and involvement in the One Community One Goal Targeted Industry Implementation Plan to encourage business engagement in education and build students’ career readiness. Students enrolled in career theme academies include Engineering, Hospitality and Tourism, Finance, Information Technology and Health Sciences who are preparing for summer internships.

It is not too late to get involved in hosting a student or group of students for this event.  For details or additional information, contact the Department of Career & Technical Education at 305-693-3030 or visit:  http://tinyurl.com/jobshadowday2014
