Career Exploration Tic-Tac-Toe

Career Exploration Tic-Tac-Toe Activity Sheet

Middle school students can choose three activities designed to help them think about the futures and explore career options. This was originally offered through 4-H in the spring of 2019 with an incentive for participation at each grade level.

4-H Resume and Cover Letter Contest

In 2020, Central District 4-H Agents piloted the new 4-H Resume and Cover Letter program. Using the resources provided below, high school students are encouraged to create a cover letter and resume for a job for which they could realistically apply. The resume should reflect actual skills and experience. Teachers may then select the best submissions to compete on the district level in mid-April. If you have questions about this program, please contact Jennifer Bowen - jebowen1@vt.edu.
