The Career Fair will be Wednesday, November 20th in Rocky's Field House from 9-11 A.M.  There will be approximately 45 businesses and colleges set up to help advise students for the next chapter in their life.  According to the Lights ON For Learning Coordinator, Lanette Johnson, the students will have the opportunity to explore many careers in the area and learn about the educational requirements, salaries and skills required for their chosen profession.

"For me, the purpose of the career fair is to help students plan for their future. It will inform them about job opportunities and the requirements for different occupations. Numerous career fields will be represented such as: agriculture, army, construction, educational services, engineering, health services, real estate and more. Students will ask questions regarding required skills, typical day, and earning potential."

Students, business representatives, Johnson and others will be available for interviews at the fair.  The media is invited to attend at any time.
