Do you have students interested in aviation, IT, engineering, law enforcement, dentistry, and other careers? Exploring groups are a great way for students to gain experience and meet people so they can make informed decisions about their post-high school lives.

The Ohio State Highway Patrol is looking for Dispatchers, and one of the great potential benefits for current seniors is the opportunity to get $7,500 in tuition reimbursement after one year of employment!

Thank you Blanchard Valley Hospital for visiting our students at Van Buren today and learning about their solution to securing healthcare workers in Hancock County! #BeABlackKnight

Whirlpool will be holding a career fair on June 15 for any current seniors seeking employment. This is a great time to see what career opportunities Whirlpool has to offer, so any seniors who are still exploring post-high school options are encouraged to scan the QR code in the graphic to RSVP. Please RSVP as soon as possible as Whirlpool will not hold the event if there is not enough interest.

Congrats to Miss Carr who got a Positive Behavior Referral from her class! #BeABlackKnight
