STUDENTS TO EXPLORE CAREERS AT FAIR, DEC. 15
November 26, 2001
Thousands of Miami-Dade County Public Schools (M-DCPS)
students and their families will explore options in high
school courses and programs to prepare for higher education
and future employment, at the 2001-02 Career Fair.
Set for Saturday, Dec. 15, from 10:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. at the
Miami-Dade County Fairgrounds' Arnold Hall, Coral Way and
S.W. 112th Ave., the fair will offer beneficial information
for students at all grade levels, with exhibits by local
businesses and the school system's magnet programs and
career academies.
A computer career center, counseling center, mock job
interviews and information sessions are fair highlights.
Student performances and on-site child-care services also
will be provided.
"It's never too early to help our students plan their
futures," said Superintendent of Schools Merrett R.
Stierheim. "Last year's first annual career fair proved to
be invaluable for the more than 7,000 students and parents
who attended to learn about educational choices and career
paths."
M-DCPS, the Miami-Dade County Fair and Exposition, and One
Community, One Goal®, an agency to create jobs in
specific high-growth industries, are the fair's hosts.
Admission is free.
