Week of Oct.26: Red Ribbon Week & Career Day

Red Ribbon Week was full of activities to help OES students remember to make good choices in life and choose to be drug free!
Monday: Bulldog Spirit Day
A BSHS football player, Cameron, came to speak to the class about how choosing to be drug free will help them be successful in life. The students enjoyed his visit!

Tuesday: Dress for Success Day
Don't they look fabulous?

Wednesday: College/University/Military Day
The Gamecocks were well represented in my class! Woohoo! We also had future Clemson alumni, as well as Duke, Wofford, and NC State. I know they all will have success in their future!

Thursday: Career Dream Day
LOVED seeing all of my sweet teachers! I even made nametags for them as well to make them more "official." We also had a veterinarian, baseball player, soldier, art teacher, and even a paleontologist! I hope they continue to dream big and reach their goals in life!

We learned about 4 different careers. We spoke with bakers (Tabby Cakes) and got to decorate then eat some yummy cupcakes! 

Next we heard from Mr. Snyder, who is in "Secret Security." They loved hearing him and asked him great questions to learn more about what he does. 

They were fascinated with where all he has been.

Then we visited some occupational therapists and learned how they help people of all ages.

 Finally, we saw Mrs. Bruce (aka Dr. Bruce) who is a lawyer. 

They had a great time hearing information that made them think more about their future career dreams.

Remember we "fall back" to standard time on Sundsg, so enjoy the extra hour of sleep. Also, there will be no school on Tuesday due to Election Day. Have a great week!
