Career Awareness Magnet Program at Bradley Elementary

Students in Richland One Career Awareness Magnet Program at Bradley Elementary have unique opportunities to explore their interests and potential career pathways.  Students in kindergarten through fifth grade achieve high levels of engagement and success through our service-based learning units, connections with experts in our community, and activities such as college and career days that extend learning beyond the classroom and help students to develop deeper connections with the South Carolina state curriculum. 

Our career focus is designed to help students explore a variety of careers and pathways leading to a job in these careers, understand how core skills such as reading and math are used in the workplace, and recognize the importance of postsecondary education and training after high school graduation.
