The College and Career EXPO provides students the opportunity to compete in college and career-oriented competitions, spend time on a college campus, and be recognized for achievements in their chosen field of study. College and Career EXPO builds upon the momentum that students and schools are creating in college and career awareness, exploration, and preparation. The event is open to all students in academies or pathways, and is also a unique opportunity to encourage the business community to support local schools and encourage students to consider their futures.
