🌟 Mather Career Day: Explore, Discover, Dream Big!
Career Day at Mather High School is an exciting annual event that gives students the opportunity to explore a wide variety of career paths and connect directly with professionals from diverse industries. Each spring, students spend the day attending engaging presentations by guest speakers who share their real-world experiences, insights, and advice.
Our presenters discuss everything from educational requirements and day-to-day responsibilities to job opportunities and long-term career growth. Career Day encourages students to ask questions, reflect on their goals, and start envisioning their future.
🎓 STUDENTS: What is Career Day?
Career Day usually takes place in April and runs like a professional conference — but designed just for YOU! Instead of attending your regular classes, you’ll join several sessions hosted by experts across various career fields.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Arrival time: All students must report to school by 8:05 AM, even if you normally have a first-period free. Attendance will be taken at the beginning of each session.
- Attendance matters: Missing a session will count as a cut class. Be sure to attend every presentation on your schedule.
- This is a mandatory event — and a great opportunity to explore your interests, network with professionals, and get inspired!
Make the most of your day by reviewing the materials shared in Pack and creating a plan for the sessions you want to attend.
📝 How do I sign up for Presentations?
One week before Career Day, you’ll review the schedule and speaker list in Packvisory. You’ll select your top five (5) preferred presentations. On the day of the event, you’ll move from session to session just like at a real conference.
⚠️ Heads up: Sessions have capacity limits. Once a room fills up, it will be closed — so have your schedule ready and plan ahead to make sure you get into the ones that excite you most!
