Our College & Career Fair was a huge success, giving students the opportunity to explore their futures beyond graduation! With over 40 colleges and career representatives our students learned about multiple pathways including enlistment, employment, entrepreneurship, and higher education. Students engaged with vendors by asking thoughtful questions at each booth for a chance to be entered into a drawing. We’re proud of our students for taking initiative and exploring the many possibilities ahead!
