On Friday, our Calera High School sophomores traveled to Columbiana to tour the facilities at CTEC and take part in the Shelby County Chamber of Commerce’s “Connect 2 Careers” Fair! Students explored more than 30 companies from across the county representing every career cluster. They networked with company representatives and even participated in hands-on activities that showcased real-world career opportunities.
A huge thank you to CTEC, the Shelby County Chamber of Commerce, and our amazing Career Coach, Miss Hope Finley, for organizing and supporting this valuable learning experience for our students! 💙🦅

Several young women from Calera High School were selected to attend STEM Goes Red, where they explored exciting career opportunities for women in STEM fields. 💡🔬❤️

Go support the Eagles tomorrow night at Chick-fil-a.
