PEC
CAREER DAY 2009 SUCCESS
On
Friday, April 3,
the Peabody Education Council hosted its annual Career
Day at Peabody Veterans Memorial High School, providing close
to 500 sophomores
with the opportunity to ask questions related to fields of study,
educational requirements and experience. This event would not
be possible without the support of the local business community.
Thank you!

The event also provided an opportunity
for the PVMHS Atheletic, Carpentry, Culinary, Cosmetology, Guidance,
Electronics and Psychology students to show off their skills.
Special thanks to parents Donna and Steven Craven, Cathy Gravel,
Kathy Rizzo, and Paula Acquavia for helping to set up and greeting
participants.
The Peabody Education Council, through its partnership with
the Peabody school system, business community and residents,
works together to bring unique opportunities to the children
of Peabody that enhance their learning both in and out of the
classroom.
This is important to all levels of education and the Peabody
Education Council accomplishes this through its Best Bet Grants,
Guest Reader Program, Kids Voting, Mentoring Program, Career
Day and much more.

Think back to the
challenges you faced as a youth.
Then remember the
people and the programs that helped you overcome these obstacles
and set you on the road to achievement.
Today's children and youth face many of
the same challenges -
and some very different, even more complex ones. Fortunately,
the young people of Peabody, Massachusetts, have a group of
supporters who sponsor programs to guide them:
the Peabody Education Council.
