Several Scott City Seniors attended the Cape Girardeau CTC Career Fair on December 5, 2023. Over 30 employers were in attendance. Pictured are Hunter and Joe who visited with the Missouri Conservation Department. According to Joe, “I talked to the Conservation Center and they have multiple jobs that I didn't even know existed.” Saul and Andrew heard from the Mid-America Carpenters Regional Council. Andrew met with P&G about a possible future job. Raven also took a few minutes to meet the Culinary Arts teacher and take a quick tour because she is thinking about the Cape CTC adult program. Thank you to the Cape Girardeau Career and Technology School for letting us attend!
