Hobbs High School Alumni
Setting up a high school “Speakers Bureau” can take time, but the rewards are many. Hosting speakers can substitute for field trips that may no longer be feasible due to budget cuts. Speakers break the monotony of daily instruction, something students appreciate, and in most cases speakers will volunteer their services.
Speakers Reflect Experience and Special Skills
Developing a list of possible speakers should reflect every subject area and level of expertise. Possible school speakers might include:
- Historical reenactors or interpreters
- Folklorists and story-tellers
- Local business owners
- Museum employees
- Medical professionals
- Holocaust survivors
- Military veterans
Many more professions can be added to this list. Often, the best source of speakers may be parents, PTA members, and alumni. Students in an Economics class might benefit from hearing how a business owner launched his enterprise. In one such instance, the owner of a chain of Mexican restaurants shared how he came from Mexico, began working as a dish-washer, and eventually opened his own restaurant.
