Brookland High School

Today our CTE Department and Career Coach hosted a College & Career Fair with over 50 businesses, colleges, and military representatives in attendance!

This event gave our students valuable opportunities to explore career paths, connect with industry professionals, and learn more about their future options beyond high school. Experiences like this help prepare our students for success in the workforce, higher education, and military service.

We are incredibly grateful to all of the businesses, colleges, and military partners who took the time to invest in our students and make this event a success!
