2013 Career Fair Big Success!
555 students and 44 organizations from both the public and private sectors attended the career fair on February 6. Of the 555 students, 122 joined us from our three middle schools. Students learned about the ins and outs of occupations they were familiar with and were introduced to some occupations they never knew existed. Once again the AHS Culinary Arts Program catered the event to the delight of the organizational reps attending. A number of organizations that attended and some that couldn't make it have offered to establish a continuing relationship with AHS. Mark your calendars for next year's career fair on February 5, 2014.
