Cohoes elementary classrooms host virtual visits from local professionals

COHOES, N.Y. — Cohoes elementary schools celebrated National Career Week (Mar. 1-5) by hosting virtual presentations from professionals in a wide variety of careers.
The opportunity was offered in partnership with Junior Achievement of Northeastern New York, an organization dedicated to giving young people the knowledge and skills they need to own their economic success, plan for their futures, and make smart academic and economic choices.
“We hope that our students will expand their horizons in terms of what they want to be when they grow up,” Abram Lansing Principal Cliff Bird said.

"We have a firefighter and a police officer, and that’s what a lot of first graders want to do, but it’s good for them to hear that they have to work for it and what they need to do to achieve it," Bird explained.
