We are excited about the opportunities they'll get in meeting with individuals in a variety of career fields.

Priority will be given to seniors and juniors. Those students on the waiting list will be contacted first. Please complete the parking application to secure a spot.
Looking ahead: Friday, October 4th - School dismisses at 10:15am. (no lunch will be served)
