GMSD hosts a career fair for middle school students preparing for high school

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) – The Germantown Municipal School District (GMSD) hosted a career fair Wednesday for hundreds of local high school students preparing for high school.

A total of 379 eighth-graders from Riverdale and Houston middle schools met with representatives from all career fields, including broadcast journalism.

Action News 5′ Kim Clarke answered dozens of questions about her career as students participated in small group discussions focused on the arts.

“It was all very well, very well planned,” said Jesus Iglesias, a Houston High student. “I saw a lot of different careers that definitely appealed to me, and it was a really fun experience to be able to see all the different places people are.”

Eighth graders who attend will soon be making decisions about their high school courses.
