Dragon Time Issue 12
https://5il.co/ck96

Seventh graders recently had an opportunity to talk one-on-one with professionals in their chosen fields of interest. Based on Mrs. Nelson’s Junior Achievement students’ research into their career likes and interests, managers and business owners were asked to come in and answer questions about their careers.
The feedback received from both students and business people was very positive. As told by Matthew Murray, “I feel more prepared to make my career decision because I now know what to expect in the career.” The results of this project will help further the efforts in making decisions about the future curriculum created through the Homegrown Talent Initiative grant.

The Dragon Times staff is happy to present the first paper of the year. We focused on a recap of the 2010s. We hope you enjoy the look back at the last decade.

The hcosd.org Website and app are receiving some updates. Please be patient with us as we work through this process.

Mrs. Nelson’s 7th Grade Junior Achievement class recently had an opportunity to start preparing for work someday. Students completed job applications, resumes, and cover letters, and then did mock interviews with prospective employers.
Employers helping with the project by grading the students’ materials and interviewing the students included Dave Hensley, manager of Ballyneal; Jody Fiscus, owner of The Oak Tree; Jill Fiedler, manager of The Marketplace; and Megan Sprague, Human Relations Manager at Melissa Memorial Hospital.
The students interviewed one-on-one with the employers, with the top entry from each group going into the final round with a panel of all four interviewers. The top four entrants consisted of Carlos Moreno, Ben Kleve, Matthew Murray, and Tyler Bergstrom. And the student that “got the job” was Ben Kleve.

For this Christmas Edition of the Dragon Times, the staff would like to give you some insight into production. https://5il.co/bv90

Congratulations to Holyoke FBLA!
Forty HHS FBLA students traveled to the Gaylord of the Rockies in Denver on April 21 to compete again 3,300 other FBLA students from across the state to determine who would qualify to attend National FBLA in San Antonio in June.

All student placing 1st through 4th are eligible to attend Nationals in San Antonio on June 29-July 3.
In addition to those placing in the top 4 of their competition, Kylie Purkeypile earned a spot to attend Nationals by being selected as Colorado State Officer District 4. In this role, Kylie's main responsibility will be to organize and implement the District 4 Leadership Conference at NJC in February, 2020. She will also attend multiple meetings throughout the year in Colorado and several other states. Along with adviser, Lori Nelson, Kylie will be the communication liaison for those schools in our district, including Haxtun, Julesburg, Caliche, Fleming, Peetz, Sterling, Revere, Weldon Valley, and Wray. Holyoke FBLA is honored to actually have a state officer in our school leading the approximately 7,500 members in Colorado, and over 230,000 students nationwide.
