Coach Morris' 8th grade Professional Communications Class had an amazing opportunity today! Some of the seniors came to conduct mock job interviews, providing her 8th graders with valuable real-world experience and insights. The seniors were able to refine their interviewing and leadership skills, while the 8th graders showcased the resumes and cover letters they created in Coach Morris' class.
