Career Day Planned For FRHS
On May 5, 2005 FRHS will hold their annual Career
Day. I have attended the last 4-5 of them and have run into other FRHS alumni
participating as well. It is a bit of a challenge to try and get these kids
motivated, but you do get through to a few of them. I mix the class up by
talking about my profession, the skills necessary for success regardless of
profession, and then I talk about how it was in the 50s and 60s. I talk about
being on the football team, how kids of all colors/religions got together and
then I usually shock them with 2 stories about FRHS:
1. The Rifle Club and how guys brought rifles to
school- no metal detectors, etc.
2. Boys Swim class in the pool- all the guys were
naked!! This really freaks them out.
The Assistant Principal in charge for Career Day is Tania Torres and she can
be reached at (718) 327-6000, ext 189.
