I have an exciting event to share with you!
On November 5, 2025, our friends at Discovery Education are hosting Futures Fair, a free one-day, virtual career fair for all learners. We can turn our classroom, library or school event space into a virtual career fair without extra prep and a whole lot of inspiration and fun.
From 10:30am-1:30pm ET, join live sessions with professionals from a wide range of real-world careers that our students will love to learn about. The speakers bring experience in STEM, the arts, skilled trades, entrepreneurship, public service, and more. A few of the partners include LIV Golf, Honda, Verizon, Meta, DEA, 3M, CVS Health, and Home Depot.
There's truly something for everyone.
The Discovery Education Futures Fair is organized in three different tracks for elementary, middle, and high school. Each session is 25-minutes long.
Speakers will share an age-appropriate overview of their role/industry and the path they took to achieve it. They’ll also highlight the future-ready skills they use in their job today, whether trade-specific skills and/or 5 Cs (e.g., collaboration, creativity, etc.).
They will build in student engagement through mini hands-on learning tasks that reinforce those skills. These tasks should be easy to do with only a plain sheet of paper and a pencil.
Aaron is a wildlife artist and former Disney animator. He will share his inspiring journey and explore how art can connect humans with wild animals, especially the polar bear. I can't wait to hear about his unique career path using his creativity.
You will go to this page on November 5 at 1:30pm ET to view the live event.
We can't wait to bring Futures Fair to our school community on November 5.
