Cedar Rapids announces career exploration events, job‑shadow round and parent IT tools
The district said all three freshman classes from Jefferson, Kennedy and Washington high schools participated in the JA Career Inspire event to explore careers through more than 70 exhibits hosted by local employers and training programs. The podcast emphasized the event’s role in helping students choose high‑school courses and future pathways.

Workplace Learning Connection opened a second round of job‑shadow opportunities for students in grades 10–12. The application portal is open November 1 through November 12 at 3 p.m.; students may select one in‑person or virtual job shadow and there is no charge to participate. Listeners were directed to the newsletter button to apply.

The district’s IT team described GoGuardian, the filtering system used on district‑managed devices, and the GoGuardian parent mobile app that provides parents visibility into student activity on school devices and allows parents to block websites or pause internet access outside school hours. To access the parent app, parents should download it from the Apple App Store or Google Play and enter the email address registered with the district in Infinite Campus. For assistance, the IT help desk number provided is (319) 558‑2900.
