Finley Middle School Hosts Career Day

Students participate in a meet and greet with dozens of professionals.

Students at the Robert M. Finley Middle School in Glen Cove recently had the opportunity to discover a wide variety of career possibilities and speak to many different working professionals during the school's Career Day. The event was organized by the district's Guidance Department. 

Professionals from finance, education, healthcare, law enforcement, government, and more spoke to students about their education and shared with them the career choices they ultimately made.

As part of the event, students were given folders equipped with career information, which included suggested questions they could ask the guest speakers.
