It was with extreme hesitancy that the students reached forward to touch the brightly colored snake coiling around the presenter’s arm. However, in the end, students did say meeting the snake was one of their favorites. The students from Mrs. Jacobson’s 3rd grade class at Cherry Creek Elementary held a career day in their classroom on Thursday, January 12, 2012. Various professionals such as a detective, an adoption agency representative, a doctor, a musician, and a biologist visited the 3rd grade classroom. Many parents and family members presented on career day.
