Career Day 2025: Exploring Paths to the Future

On Wednesday, the Upper School buzzed with curiosity and inspiration during our annual Career Day, hosted by the College Counseling office. This much-anticipated event gives juniors and seniors the chance to dive into industries that spark their interest and explore possible future career paths.

Saint Edward’s alumni and friends from across the country joined us, both virtually and in person, to share their real-world experiences and professional journeys. These panelists, representing a broad spectrum of industries, spoke about their educational backgrounds, career progression and what a typical day looks like in their roles. Their insights provided invaluable guidance to students as they begin thinking about life beyond high school.

"I thoroughly enjoyed attending the medicine-centered session at this year's Career Day. Dr. Haryani gave us a very informative description of her time from being a student here at Saint Edwards to her involvement in Vero Beach's dermatology. It was an enriching experience learning about how I might structure my future career path!" - Matthew Barrett '26
