The 8th grade students in Mr. Uitermarkt's Career Readiness class are doing a unit on obtaining their first job. In this unit they have learned how to apply for a job, what good interview skills are, and participated in a mock interview to help the students be prepared for their first job interview. Recently, 3 local businesses came in to talk about these topics with our 8th graders. Thank you to Fareway, Hy-Vee, and Checkered Flag Concessions for taking time out of their work day to come present to our students. KCSD values our partnerships with the Knoxville business community!

KMS added a new elective course this year called College and Career Readiness which is taught by Mr. Uitermarkt. Students who have taken this class first semester have researched and learned about hundreds of jobs available to them in their future. Recently, the 6th-8th grade students completed the last career cluster on STEM careers. They made a 3-D project to represent their chosen career. Here are a few projects that the students completed and then shared through an oral presentation to their classmates.
