Broward County Public Schools (BCPS) will observe Take Our Children to Work Day on Thursday, April 25, 2024. This year’s theme is "Inspire 2 Aspire."
“Take Our Children to Work Day” is a District approved field trip and will not be considered an absence when a completed field trip form is returned to the school’s attendance clerk by April 18, 2024. Students may participate in this field trip by attending a workplace with a parent, guardian, adult relative, or adult family friend.
Designed to be more than a career day, the Take Our Children To Work program goes beyond the average practice of “shadowing” an adult. Exposing children to what a parent or mentor does during the work day is important, but showing them the value of their education, helping them discover the power and possibilities of work and family life, providing boys and girls a chance to share how they envision the future, and allowing them to begin steps toward their goals in a hands-on and interactive environment is key to their achieving success.
