Rocky Grove Holds Successful Career & College Fair
Many local businesses participated in the Career & College Fair at Rocky Grove in November. In addition to the RGHS 11th and 12th grade students, Christian Life Academy, Cochranton, Cranberry, Franklin, and Venango Catholic students also had the chance to speak with representatives to help plan for their futures.
Lynn Brandt, Workforce Development Manager at Franklin Industries commented, “The students were excited, eager to learn and asked a lot of great questions. Franklin Industries was onsite to showcase what we do and what we produce – as well as hand out pamphlets, candy, and the coolest bags at the fair!”
Event organizers, Tracy McBride and Beth Proper, brought in over 70 representatives from local employers, colleges, branches of the military, and educational partners.
