Career Cafe with JamieK!

On September 26th we kicked off a new program called Career Cafe.  Career Cafe is designed to educate and introduce students to various careers.  Once a month I will invite a professional to come to North Platte to speak to students during lunch. This program is open to anyone in grades 7-12.  

For our September Career Cafe, students listened to a presentation given by international photographer Jamie Delaney.  Jamie talked to students about her business JamieK! Photography.  She talked about classes that would be helpful for students to take such as Accounting.  Jamie said that she spends about 20% of her time taking pictures and about 80% managing her business.

Students enjoyed meeting Jamie and had many great questions for her.  If you would like to find out more about Jamie you can go to www.jamiekphoto.com.   We appreciate Jamie taking time to come talk to our students about her career.
