Tina Lutterman and Stacey Walton, iJAG education specialists at Perry High School, organized and managed the logistics for Friday’s iJAG-sponsored Career Discovery Day at PHS.

Students explored career options and attended presentations related to occupations of interest. The biennial event also offers students the opportunity to visit with businesses, college representatives and military recruiters.

The event included:

  • 37 career-focused presentations.
  • 114 classroom sessions.
  • 26 different businesses hosted tables in the PHS Gymnasium.
  • 14 student ambassadors helped to set up and organize presenters.
  • iJAG classes assisted with typing attendance lists, tidying spaces and other event details.
  • The entire PHS administration, counseling office, teaching staff, office staff and support staff participated in some capacity.
  • Lutterman baked all of the desserts for the presenters.

Lutterman’s iJAG class also organized the 2022 iJAG Community Blood Drive on March 31, mobilizing PHS iJAG students in this biannual community service project with LifeServe Blood Center.
