Dear Industry Partner, Thank you for your willingness to participate ...

Dear Industry Partner,
Thank you for your willingness to participate in our latest initiative called Capstone Projects. Your
assistance with this initiative will help our Seniors design relevant and rigorous projects. Your role as
an industry partner may be fulfilled in a number ways:
1. You can serve as a career speaker where you will speak to a group of students about your career
for approximately 30 minutes and then do a Q&A.
2. You can work with a small group of students during our meeting times to provide input to provide
real‐world context for our projects.
3. You can invite a group of students to visit your workplace to do a “job shadow”.
We have five “Strands” or industry sectors that are the main areas of focus:
• Arts, Media and Entertainment
• Education, Psychology & Public Service
• Engineering & Environmental Science
• Health Sciences
• Business, Marketing & Sales
To coordinate your participation with the Capstone Projects, please complete the attached survey by
October 5 th and return it to the Main Office, or email it to me at parkc@pvpusd.k12.ca.us . Once I compile
the results of the survey, I will contact you to confirm that you are scheduled for a specific meeting date or
dates. At that time, we might also discuss and coordinate your efforts to support our students in their
preparation for this wonderful new project, as well as college and future career.
Thank you for the generosity of your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Charles Park, Ed.D.
Associate Principal
