Career Day At JFK Intermediate School Featured Former Students

from the Deer Park school district

Fifth graders at Deer Park’s John F. Kennedy Intermediate School experienced the school’s annual Career Day on Jan. 26, featuring in-person volunteers from a wide range of professions such as digital entrepreneurs, lawyers, financial advisers, doctors, nurses, police officers, firefighters, architects, DJs and representatives from the New York State Department of Agriculture.

Most of the volunteers who participated, providing insights into what their jobs entail, were former Deer Park students.

“This is always a wonderful day for our JFK students,” Principal Kelly Benson said. “It was nice that students were able to see people who graduated from Deer Park and learn what they were able to become by following their passions.”
