EPIC (Exploring Potential Interests & Careers): Grade 10 Field Trip Opportunity

Sophomores at Elk River High School are invited to participate in a FREE field trip attending an awesome career exploration event at St. Cloud Technical and Community College on Friday, October 25, 2024 from 9:15 AM-1:45 PM . This EPIC (Exploring Potential Interests & Careers) event is designed for high school students to learn about careers. EPIC is not your typical career fair. Students will be able to see demonstrations and have hands-on experiences facilitated by professionals who work in a variety of career fields. The event will allow students to "try-on" a career by engaging in experiences that mimic the activities of a variety of careers. Check out this VIDEO and WEBSITE for more information on the EPIC event.

To take advantage of this great opportunity and attend the EPIC field trip, you must sign up. By completing the digital parent permission form, you are indicating that you are committed to attending this field trip. The deadline to register is Monday, October 7.This is a firm deadline as accurate sign up is essential to arrange transportation.Students are required to use school transportation for this event. If your student chooses not to attend the field trip, they will be expected to attend their regularly scheduled classes on October 25. All students signed up for the field trip will attend an Elk Time on 10/24/24 to help them prepare for the event. Space is limited to 200 grade 10 ERHS students. We hope you will join us for this great opportunity to plan for life after high school.
