To expose students to different career options, John Street School hosted a Career Day for fifth and sixth graders on May 19.

The guest speakers included investment advisor Rick Betancourt, sports news anchor Andrew Bogusch, NYPD detective Richie Hoda, registered nurse Annette Ramos and financial analyst Jenna Turato. All were family members of a fifth or sixth grader in the building.

After speaking about their profession and day-to-day responsibilities, the professionals answered questions from students.

Fifth graders recently wrapped up their final Go Math chapter for the year about 3D figures. To extend what they learned, the students created their very own icosahedrons from straws and pipe cleaners! They then had to find the number of vertices, edges and faces.
