During College and Career Week, our Event Planning class hosted lunch for all of our career speakers, helped escort speakers to their classrooms, and made each guest a goody bag to say thank you for coming to our school. Thank you Mrs. Black and her students for helping make our week such a success!
Mrs. Black did a lot of learning over the summer to get ready for the school year! Looks like all of her hard work has been paying off in the classroom.
