With the goal of showcasing the various career opportunities that can be found in the local area, the school is inviting businesses to send representatives to the Career Fair to inform students of the opportunities available.

“Our goals are to show off the different careers that can be found in our community or a short drive away, as well as for those of you who are looking for potential employees to have a chance to interact with and recruit our students,” the school said in a press release. “This event also allows our students to work on much needed social skills by having the chance to interact with you.

“Even in a small community such as ours, we are lucky to have a vast diversity of career choices for our students should they decide that they want to remain a part of our community upon completing their education.”

Tables will be provided for each business to set up their display, which may consist of simulators, games, models, and more which are all “more than welcome.” Display set-up will begin at 8 a.m. with students being sent in at 9 a.m.

Lunch will also be provided from 11:35 a.m. to 12:05 p.m. for all exhibitors before the event concludes at 1 p.m. If the event is “snowed out” due to severe weather on Feb. 22, the school has designated a backup date for the next day on Friday, Feb. 23, 2024.
