KAPOLEI MIDDLE SCHOOL
8th Grade Career Day: Wednesday, March 8, 2000

Many thanks to Mr. Anderson, 8th Grade Counselor, for planning and arranging this activity. Thanks also go out to all staff members who helped make this event a success! Thanks to Ms. Root for contributing most of the photos.

The purpose of this event was to expose students to different career fields so they have a better understanding what occupations are "out there" and what is required to be in that line of work.

Mahalo to the following guest speakers who gave up their valuable time for the benefit of our students (click on the image to see a larger view):
