Third Annual Parent Career Day

Student Council is sponsoring our Third Annual Parent Career Day at Irving on April 10th.  We would like you to come and help us learn about what you do.  Last year we heard from someone in advertising, a contractor, an actress, an author, a social worker, a pastor, and a doctor, just to name a few.  If you would like to come and talk to a group of Irving students about your job, then please fill out and return the bottom of this FORM.  We would like all replies by Friday, March 22nd.  We will email everyone who responded with more information.  Everyone is invited!

If you are interested, please return this FORM by Friday, March 22nd. Career Day will be on April 10th.  We will send more information on exact times once we have a good idea of the number of parent volunteers. Thank you.
