Our Decatur Middle School 8th grade students recently had the opportunity to visit the Career Academies of Decatur (CAD)!

This exciting experience allowed students to explore career pathways, discover new interests, and learn about the opportunities available to them as they prepare for high school and beyond. By exploring career-focused programs, our students are taking important steps toward making informed decisions about their academic and career goals.

At Decatur Middle School, we believe that the future starts with exposure, exploration, and opportunity! We are proud of our students as they begin envisioning the possibilities that lie ahead.

A special thank you to the Career Academies of Decatur for welcoming our students and helping them see what their futures can hold!

The future is bright, and our students are just getting started!
