Class of 2018 To Participate in Business and Industry Fair

Tenth grade students will travel to the 3rd Annual Business and Industry Fair at the Park Inn by Radisson on Thursday, March 10th. This event is an off-chute of the program known as Lawrence County School to Work. With such success in Lawrence County, the workshop became available for Mercer County schools in 2014.

The objective of the program is to highlight potential career paths in the fields of manufacturing and business. Students will learn about various levels of occupations within each company and the positions that require technical school training or other degrees. There will be dozens of local employers available to field questions and present information about their respective fields. In past years, students have heard from a motivational speaker. There are also a multitude of games and activities that are oriented towards the main focus of this program.
