November is National Career Development Month!
It’s a time to explore different jobs, learn about your interests, and start thinking about your future!
At DMS, we’re celebrating all month long:
- Career of the Day: Tune in each morning for a new career spotlight on the announcements and learn fun facts about different jobs and the skills they use.
- Weekly Career Cluster Highlights: Each week, students will get an email featuring a new career cluster — groups of related jobs that share similar skills and interests.
- Career Cluster Bulletin Board: Stop by outside the Counseling Office to discover even more career ideas!
This is a great time for students to dream big, explore possibilities, and imagine their future paths. 💫
Stay tuned, stay curious, and get ready to explore your future!

Career Day is Coming to DMS!
We’re excited to announce that Career Day for our 7th and 8th grade students will take place on Tuesday, December 16, from 9:45–10:30 AM!
We’re inviting parents and guardians to be part of this special event and share their careers with students. All careers are welcome!
Presenters will meet with two small groups of students (about 15–25 per group) and have 20 minutes to talk about what they do, how they chose their career, the skills or education involved, and what a typical day looks like. Presentations can be informal — we encourage props, photos, and real-life stories!
A current CORI check with Douglas Public Schools is required to participate.
If you or someone you know would like to participate and help inspire our students, please fill out the short interest form below:

Let’s work together to help students explore future pathways and connect what they’re learning today to opportunities tomorrow!
