High school students face many responsibilities, one of which is entering the working force. Thankfully, Rocky Mountain High School has a solution that will help students figure things out. Career Cab has been helping students find jobs since the 2013-2014 school year.  These field trip opportunities are ready to help you and your future.

Mr. Papp organizes the Career Cab trips and has one field trip every month this year. He arranges for students to visit different industries, like manufacturing, nursing, and construction. There have been a few trips this year and he has more planned.

The tours consist of seeing and touring the businesses, with activities designed to show students the possibilities available in that particular field. Transportation is provided and students are excused from classes on the day of the field trip. In addition, all trips are free.

Upcoming Career Cab trips are: A nursing field trip on November 12th and an IT field trip January 1st. Interested students can sign up in the College and Career Center. Just ask for Mr. Papp.

An event that is associated with Career Cab is the Hiring Fair. The Hiring Fair will be held on October 25 at lunch in the College and Career Center, and six companies will be attending. The companies are Cinemark, Taco Johns, Loveland Laser Tag, The Summit, Columbine Health Systems, and Good Samaritan Society and they will all be looking for young applicants to fill their positions.
