Celebrating CTE Month with #CareerTechTuesday! Business Education at Arundel High School #BelongGrowSucceed

2 months ago, Anne Arundel County Public Schools

Business Education - I majored in Marketing and minored in Sports Commerce & Culture at UMD before spending 11 years in finance. Driven by my passion for teaching and mentoring, I made a career change into Business Education, the only subject I could ever see myself teaching. I love business—especially marketing and finance—and enjoy helping students learn real-world skills and knowledge that will impact their futures. Arundel HS offers both Honors Accounting and Honors Marketing 2—courses that provide incredible opportunities for students, such as collaborating with local businesses on social media advertising and organizing a TED Talk event for our school. Our National Business Honor Society is thriving, with 59 junior and senior members, and our personal finance club, the “Millionaire’s Club,” is highly successful, having won the state championship in the Stock Market Game three times. Business Education classes are essential for high school students because they teach critical life skills like financial literacy, communication, and problem-solving that prepare them for both college and careers. These courses provide hands-on experience in entrepreneurship, marketing, and management, helping students develop a strong foundation for success in any industry. By learning how businesses operate and managing money effectively, students gain practical knowledge that will benefit them for a lifetime.

Educación empresarial - Me especialicé en Marketing y en Comercio y Cultura Deportiva en la UMD antes de pasar 11 años en finanzas. Impulsado por mi pasión por la enseñanza y la tutoría, hice un cambio de carrera hacia la Educación Empresarial, la única materia que me imaginaba enseñando. Me encantan los negocios, especialmente el marketing y las finanzas, y disfruto ayudando a los estudiantes a aprender habilidades y conocimientos del mundo real que tendrán un impacto en su futuro. Nuestra escuela ofrece Contabilidad con honores y Marketing 2 con honores, cursos que brindan increíbles oportunidades a los estudiantes, como colaborar con empresas locales en publicidad en redes sociales y organizar un evento TED Talk para nuestra escuela. Nuestra Sociedad Nacional Empresarial de Honor está prosperando, con 59 miembros juniors y seniors, y nuestro club de finanzas personales, el “Club del Millonario”, tiene mucho éxito, ya que ha ganado el campeonato estatal en el Juego de la Bolsa tres veces. Las clases de educación empresarial son esenciales para los estudiantes de secundaria porque enseñan habilidades fundamentales para la vida, como conocimientos financieros, comunicación y resolución de problemas, que los preparan tanto para la universidad como para la vida profesional. Estos cursos proporcionan experiencia práctica en emprendimiento, marketing y administración, ayudando a los estudiantes a desarrollar una base sólida para el éxito en cualquier industria. Al aprender cómo funcionan las empresas y administrar el dinero de manera efectiva, los estudiantes adquieren conocimientos prácticos que les beneficiarán durante toda la vida.

#TBT Spotlight on CTE Ms. Wolf was a student at North County while attending CAT-North for Baking & Pastry Arts. She is now in her fourth year teaching Baking & Pastry Arts at CAT-North. "My student experience at CAT-North was truly life-shaping, and single-handedly the best decision I've ever made. I knew when it came to my career, it would be an honor and a privilege to come back to CAT North as an instructor myself. I consider myself lucky to get to show up and do the job I do every day with the staff and students I get to spend my time with. Baking is truly a work of art, a feat of science, and a job of love at the same time- an industry I love I get to share with my students daily." Bonus Image: My instructor giving me a hug when I was announced as the state gold medalist in Baking & Pastry my senior year of high school. A photo of one of my students giving me a hug. That same student also won the state gold medal in Baking & Pastry last year, in her senior year of high school. #fullcirclemoment Proud AACPS-CTE-Graduate-Turned-Teacher

Celebrating CTE Month with #CareerTechTuesday! Computer Science at Old Mill High School #BelongGrowSucceed

3 months ago, Anne Arundel County Public Schools

Computer Science CS profoundly impacts our lives, the economy, and the environment. Computer scientists design, develop, and analyze software and hardware to solve problems in many fields. The most remarkable thing about the CS Program is that I have the autonomy to teach my content the way I feel comfortable while connecting careers to what I teach. We officially started the Old Mill Media Team, where students who are a part of the team will begin to support athletics, theater, and music. We had our first media day this year and focused on girls' basketball. We had a fantastic time and community support. We were able to create short videos, video announcements, and so much more. We are planning on piloting a podcast in the next few weeks. There are many opportunities for students to explore and create using different styles of media. As a CTE teacher, I know that I’m the introduction to many fun careers. The CTE program allows students to sample different fields while making real-world connections in the classroom. Old Mill High School received the 2024 College Board AP Computer Science Female Diversity Award. Liana Johnson-Suarez, Computer Science Teacher, Old Mill HS

The weather forecast is calling for potentially icy road conditions on Thursday morning (2/6). While we do not anticipate any changes in our operational schedule at this time, the possibility of a delay or a shift to virtual instruction does exist. All AACPS employees as well as students with AACPS-issued devices should be routinely taking devices home and charging them nightly. Given the forecast, we thought it prudent to provide this reminder. Any changes to operational schedules, should they occur, will be made through the normal channels. Thank you.

Celebrating Black History Month Banneker-Douglass-Tubman Museum #BlackHistoryMonth

3 months ago, Anne Arundel County Public Schools

Banneker-Douglass-Tubman Museum The Banneker-Douglass-Tubman Museum honors three African-American Marylanders who contributed significantly to the history of Maryland: Benjamin Banneker, Frederick Douglass, and Harriet Tubman. Originally, the land in Annapolis off Church Circle was owned by a formerly enslaved woman named Charity Folk. The free African American community established the Mount Moriah AME Church there in 1874. In the 1970s, local activists and the Maryland Commission on African American History launched a campaign called “Save Mt. Moriah” to restore the church, and the museum opened its doors in February of 1984. Today the Banneker-Douglass-Tubman Museum serves as a home for rare artifacts and archives and a place where the community can gather to visit exhibitions and participate in youth and public programs. Event Saturday Sat., Feb. 8th 12 pm - 4 pm Sacred Spaces Opening Reception & Black History Month Celebration 84 Franklin St, Annapolis

Museo Banneker-Douglass-Tubman El Museo Banneker-Douglass-Tubman rinde homenaje a tres afroamericanos de Maryland que contribuyeron de manera significativa a la historia de Maryland: Benjamin Banneker, Frederick Douglass y Harriet Tubman. Originalmente, el terreno en Annapolis junto a Church Circle era propiedad de una mujer que había sido esclava llamada Charity Folk. La comunidad afroamericana libre estableció allí la iglesia Mount Moriah AME en 1874. En la década de 1970, activistas locales y la Comisión de Maryland sobre Historia Afroamericana lanzaron una campaña llamada «Salvar el Mount Moriah» para restaurar la iglesia, y el museo abrió sus puertas en febrero de 1984. Hoy en día, el Museo Banneker-Douglass-Tubman alberga artefactos y archivos valiosos, y es un lugar donde la comunidad puede reunirse para visitar exposiciones y participar en programas juveniles y públicos.
