Many teachers start the morning with a special quote, famous person, life lesson, etc. The goal of Career Vision curriculum is to integrate career education into curriculum naturally to expose student to new ideas for careers, jobs, majors, internships, gigs, side hustles, and entrepreneurship. If it became natural and commonplace to expose our children to 5 jobs a day for 18 years they would have 32,850 potential options to explore after high school graduation. Instead, most high schoolers know about 20 careers off the top of their head with the majority of those being uniformed community helper jobs they learned in preschool, demonstrating lack of exposure and growth for the majority of their K-12 education. We work and sleep for over 50 years of our life so choosing how they spend over 24% of our week to earn our money is one of the biggest decisions we will ever make. We can never become what we don't know exists and Career Vision curriculum aims to widen the gap for informed choice. Thank you for doing your part to increase exposure in a very natural way.
