We Are The Future: Fairhill Career Day 2024
Fairhill Students Engage With Over 50 Career Opportunities
Our annual Career Fair was held on April 26, 2024 in the gym at Fairhill Elementary. Over 50 different employers were in attendance, representing a wide range of occupations, from a ballet instructor, to a plumber, to a pilot! A huge thank you goes out to all of our volunteers and staff that made our career fair successful. Students were able to engage, ask questions, and learn more about potential career pathways as they chart their course through their time at Fairhill and as they prepare for college and career.
