Huge shout out to Angel Barbee with Kiamichi Tech Poteau for some amazing work she did with our students this week. We also want to thank her for the following email that she sent that talks about our wonderful students and the valuable information they gained from her.
Good afternoon,
Thank you so much for extending the opportunity for me to visit and complete career exploration activities with Howe students this week! The teachers at Howe are ROCKSTARS, and Mrs. Cox was so accommodating and helpful in assisting me in planning my visit. Your school climate is special at Howe, and I know this comes from professionals who love their jobs and more importantly, professionals who love students! Your students were engaged and asking pertinent questions using higher level thinking skills obviously extending from engaging with adults at your school in a meaningful way. My focus with your students was to set achievable educational goals in order to reach their future career goals, and it was an easy conversation because of the groundwork the staff at Howe is laying each and every single school day. Together, we completed activities to explore options available to your students to prepare for a future of contributing to the economic development of our area through their chosen career paths. I have attached the student login information, a few pictures, and am providing a link to the results from the 8th grader's game of KAHOOT (KAHOOT is a game created for the 8th graders to learn about training in the trade industry available to them at the Kiamichi Tech Poteau campus). https://create.kahoot.it/user-reports/live-game/9984c1c1-2c3b-4a74-aee0-c994ec6c3a88/8d8e066b-f847-4b96-a77c-eab39280569b/1666119626694/summary?organisationId=
