At FVMS, students are regularly provided with meaningful opportunities to explore careers and pathways that align with their individual interests, as identified through their career inventories. Recently, our students participated in Caterpillar’s STEM Day, where they engaged in a hands-on activity designed to model the engineering and design process. This experience allowed students to apply critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving skills in a real-world context, further connecting classroom learning to future career possibilities.
