This is a great opportunity for business professionals and our community to come see in person what our high school students are doing to become competitive in tomorrow’s marketplace! With 80% of the jobs in coming years being STEM related jobs, and a prediction of only 20% of college graduates being prepared to accept those positions, these students are taking active steps today to ensure they are leading the pack!
