🎯 Career Exploration at PCMS! 🎯
Today, our 8th graders had an exciting opportunity to explore future careers in a whole new way! Workforce WV visited PCMS to guide students through career exploration activities using virtual reality (VR) headsets.
Students were able to experience hands-on simulations of different professions — from healthcare to skilled trades — giving them a glimpse into potential future career paths.
A big thank you to Workforce WV for bringing this engaging and educational experience to our students! 🌟💼🧠
