Career Exploration at Morrison High School gives students the opportunity to 1) explore options after high school and 2) go through a formal employment process. Students complete an application, a resume, and a cover letter before culminating with a mock interview with their teacher, Justin Stevenson.

Students leave Career Exploration class with a knowledge of what their path might look like after high school and how to land that important job.
