Career and Skilled Trade Fair @ Webster Schroeder- Friday March 31st
This information has previously been sent out via ParentSquare.
First, You can find the Webster Schroeder Career Fair Directory through the link - this list is not final; more institutions may be added before the 3/31 event. In this directory students and families can find all of the companies that have already registered and a brief description. They can also look at the different career fields that will be represented in the career fair.
There is a Parent and Alumni Registration Form - If any parent or alumni would like to attend the fair they need to complete this form. This will help our security staff with flow and traffic concerns.
Finally there are a handful of companies that are willing to interview or meet individually with students. If a current HS student would like to interview or meet with any of the companies who are participating in this they need to complete the Student Interview Registration Form. Students will select the company or companies they would like to interview with. Please note that completing this form does NOT guarantee an interview.
If you have any questions about the career fair please email Patrick Claire at Patrick_Claire@webstercsd.org
