Breakfast with the Stars - February 21
Juniors and Seniors will attend Breakfast with the Stars. It is an amazing program created by the International Youth Foundation to connect high school students with career professionals to learn about their backgrounds, career paths and any advice they may have to offer someone interested in pursuing a future in their field of work. The professionals will give a brief introduction of themselves and tell a little about their careers. Students will then have a chance to sit down with and ask questions to the professionals.
