To wrap up career exploration, first grade had some pretty cool experiences. We met with an MRI Tech. She showed us some amazing images taken by the machine and played the sound for us, too. We also met with our own tech department, Mr. Smith! He showed us all about security systems and how WiFi works. We also got to play around with some exciting STEM gadgets. The local vet, Dr. Lawhead also came for a visit! He showed us his equipment and explained some of the most fun jobs he's been to. Lastly, we walked down to the post office. We got to learn about the routes and the importance of a rural delivery method.
FFA members hosted Ag Olympics for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. Even Dr. M-K joined for a sack race.

Our first graders are becoming published authors! Their topic will be what they want to be when they grow up. Because of this, they have been having some career highlights. This week they were visited by an industrial mechanic, a police office, a school nurse, a flight nurse, an ER doctor, and a police officer. They loved learning about the different tools they use everyday. They are so excited to write about the careers they will have one day!
A BIG Wildcat Thank You to the Liverpool Fire Company Team for visiting us during Fire Prevention Week. Our students learned so much and it was so fun to see some familiar faces return to GWDES!
