Our Time at Creek
We started as the Creek Career Campaign, an initiative focused on guiding students toward career success in our high school. However, as we’ve grown, our vision has as well. We now aim to extend beyond just careers, emphasizing connection, growth, and impact. To reflect this evolution, we’re reintroducing ourselves as C Cubed—a name that honors our roots while embracing our broader goals. The “C” still stands for Creek, a reference to our starting place, while the cube represents our multidimensional focus on collaborating, committing to, and conquering goals. With this shortened and new name, we aim to inspire and engage a diverse audience in ways that truly make an impact. This page references our time at Mallard Creek High School.

Career Readiness Day
Hosted a Career Readiness Day in hopes of assisting with multiple major vocational skills. It consisted of professional dress examples, mock interview sessions, elaborated resume assistance, and a tie demonstration. We worked on various skills that are beneficial for a career and received positive feedback.
Instagram Post Model
Summary
The Creek Career Campaign has collaborated with numerous largely populated clubs at the school, reaching over 300 students in terms of club members. Our Instagram following of 250+ and being exposed to all CTE classes has exposed us to at least 25% of the Creek student population.
All clubs had been noticed through our Instagram, leading to more outreach. Considering analytics of the outreach methods and clicks of our opportunities, along with the feedback received from student participation, we have positively impacted at least 500 individuals through volunteer opportunities, career assistance, and college readiness.
