At Friday’s finale,several teachersshared their impres-sions and how theexperience will helpthem guide studentsalong career paths.

“I’ve lived inAsheboro my entire lifeand I had no clue whatgoes on there,” saidCatherine Davis, aneighth-grade English/Language Arts teacherat North AsheboroMiddle school, who in-terned at the AsheboroPublic Library. She wasamazed at the arrayof services provided,from helping folkstrace their ancestryto providing internethot-spot access. Shecouldn’t wait to shareher insight with col-leagues and students.

“I really enjoyed myweek. It really is aneye-opening experi-ence to see how thewheels turn behind thescenes to keep all ofus healthy and safe,”said Pachovia Lovett,a social worker forRandleman elemen-tary, middle and highschools, K through 12thgrades. She was pairedwith Randolph CountyEmergency Manage-ment Services. She wasinterested in introduc-ing students, especiallythose not on the collegecareer path, to all themany avenues avail-able, including fire

and law enforcement.Judy Hiatt, a South-

eastern RandolphMiddle School scienceteacher for the sixthgrade, was glowing inher account of shadow-ing the Asheboro CityWastewater Plant staff.

“Every scienceteacher should do this.”

After her week withRandolph ElectricMembership Corp.,Tresa Hatchett saysshe has a new-foundappreciation for allthat goes on behindthe scenes to “turnon a light switch.”She teaches at NorthAsheboro MiddleSchool, sixth througheighth grades, Key-

boarding and Micro-soft Applications, andcan’t wait to sign upagain next year forthe program — andobserve REMC again.

Tracy Whatley, aNortheastern RandolphMiddle School coun-selor for sixth througheighth grades, wasmatched with Ran-dolph Community Col-lege. She was lookingforward to sharing withher eighth-graders,who are contemplat-ing what to do withtheir future, all the“fabulous” programs,technology and edu-cational opportunitiesavailable at the collegethat could help themin choosing a career.As an added bonus,she couldn’t wait toenlighten their parentsto make them “awareof what’s out there.”

Nancy Cross, direc-tor of career technicaleducation and innova-tive school design forRCSS, in summing upthe program and itsmission, used a com-parison from the book,“The Courage to Teach.”

“(The book) givesus a lens of thinkingabout vocation as beingthe place where yourdeep gladness and yourdeep hunger meets,”she said, noting theworld is hungry forlots of services busi-nesses provide. “Ifwe can help studentsalign things that theyare passionate aboutwith things that theworld is hungering for,what a more fulfillinglife they will have.

“I’m very passionateabout, at younger andyounger ages, expos-ing students because,how can you dreamof growing up to to be

something if you don’tknow that somethingexists. Any way wecan continue to exposestudents to opportuni-ties and something toconnect their passionwith that will lead toa lifelong, successfulexperience is whatwe are hoping for. Ihope you can take thisexperience and applyit in such a way thatyou can do just that.”
