A group of students attended the Northwestern Mutual/Milliman Actuary Science Seminar at the NM Headquarters in Downtown Milwaukee last week. The students learned about education necessary to become an actuary and received information on internships available for this career path. They spent time finding out about the typical "Day in the Life" of an Actuary, the Actuary Exams, and the Actuarial Career Path. They also explored a case study example and finished the day with a Q&A from two top executives from NM and Milliman. #LearnGrowEngageGreendale








The students spoke with healthcare professionals, explored real-world demonstrations, and learned about education pathways and career opportunities across a wide range of health-related fields. This annual fair helps students to understand the vital role of these healthcare organizations in meeting workforce needs and supporting community well-being.

GMS 6th graders wrapped up their research unit on our changing oceans recently with a video call to a real-life explorer -- Mark Wood, who travels to remote places around the world. Mr. Wood has led polar and mountain expeditions for over twenty years in areas including the Arctic Circle, Antarctica and the Himalayas, plus the Norwegian, Canadian and Alaskan high Arctic.
