Elmhurst Elementary School

Our second-grade Spanish Immersion students recently completed their "When I Grow Up" career exploration project!

Over the past few weeks, students have reflected on their interests, strengths, and talents while learning about different professions and imagining their future careers. As part of the project, they wrote and shared original stories and designed creative models representing their future workplaces. Families were invited to visit our classroom and celebrate their children’s learning and future career dreams.
