Response to Mr. Boyars

I think one of the reasons our faculty made STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) one of our academies is because those things are invovled in every career there could be. This academy/career cluster is so important. In the past few years, every career and job has been linked to STEM in some sort of way. In the next few years, every career will be linked to to STEM in a lot of ways. I think it's a good evolution. We need science, technology, engineering and math. It's become a necessity. Some people might not agree with that, and some people do. The advancements we've had have not only made things easier, but it's made more things possible. It also creates jobs and goals for peopel to try and reach. STEM is definitely not only a cluster. I think the faculty made a good decision by making it an Academy.

Making connections

This week we did Law and public safety. I am actually quite interested in this cluster. I've always had a career in law in my mind. The other week we did Health Science and that has definitely been my number one career cluster for a long time. I've always wanted to be in the medical field in some way. In both jobs I can help people. That's one of the reasons I like both of the clusters.

Introduction

My name is Hannah. I'm in Career Exploration for 8th hour. This is my first post on this blog. This class doesn't help me all that much because it's not exactly helping me with the career I want to pursue as an adult. We've done the same thing since we started school and it's really getting on my nerves.
