On Thursday, April 12th, 2012, Cassie Callas and myself; Aaron Stone were presenters at Grants Pass High School's Career Day. We spoke to four different groups of students. We discussed all of the different positions/departments at our radio stations; KLDR and KAJO. We talked about the on-air announcers, news writers and reporters, programming, production, sales, promotions, traffic, copywriting, IT and engineering staff. We answered any questions that the students had, and talked about the kind of education/degrees that would help them achieve a career in the radio business.

Jeanette Stark, Program Director, Jeanette attended a career class at Gladiola Alternative High School in April of 2012. She gave a brief overview of daily tasks and explained the educational requirements. Talked about her own experience and how she moved up the ladder from front desk, to on-air to Program Director for both stations. She talked about job-shadowing, internships, and took questions from the students, who were all required to take notes as a part of the class. An invitation to stop by and tour the station was given to all students. Jeanette has been invited back for January 2013.
Intern Program: We have an intern program with the Hidden Valley FBLA. The students get to come and shadow the employees of KAJO/KLDR the week of Oct. 6-10 and in exchange we get to use their services in helping to promote the station in the community or for extra help at any event we have. The kids earn time and learn the behind the scene actions of a business which is credit to their state competition for FBLA.
We also had two interns this year. Keith Fawcett from May 2012 to Present and Natalie Goens from May 2012 to August 2012.
Establishment of the KAJO/KLDR Scholarship, a $500.00 scholarship, is awarded to a deserving senior graduate of Grants Pass High School. This student must be interested in pursuing a career in Journalism.
