CAREER WEEK - 2021

My College Monday

Having an awareness of what levels and types of education are needed for a career is incredibly important. At BEJ, we strive to have a college going culture, whether that be a trade school, four year degree, masters or even doctorate! We are so lucky in NC to have great schools just a few miles away:)

Tackle Your Dreams Tuesday

We all have dreams! We focused less on getting dressed and spent more energy trying to figure out how we can reach our dreams and goals. Short term and long term goals are SO important to have,, and they are easier to think about in your PJs!

Work Hat Wednesday

What a fun day to showcase different work hats worn in different careers. Some careers require employees to wear many "hats" or to even create their own! It's a good thing we are learning the skills in elementary school to help us to be a good employee and an even better citizen of our communities!

Too Bright Thursday

The students at BEJ have BRIGHT futures. Dressed in neon and sunglasses, we thought about just what those bright futures would look like and how we were going to change the world. All of the BEJ students have future's so bright, I bet they needed to wear their sunglasses all day long!

Futuristic Friday

Dress as the career you want to have and attend our virtual career fair!
