Ten Brook Hill juniors spent Friday with business and industry partners from the Tyler community. Students heard presentations and asked questions so that they could better understand a typical work day in their intended field of study. The business partners shared valuable information with the students about their careers, experience, and education.

Presentations included:

Arts, Audio/Video Technology and Communications,  Business Education,  Engineering and Architecture, Health Science, Industrial and Technical Fields, Public Safety,  Science and Technology,  How to Get Into College, How to Survive College, How to Keep a Job, How to Stand Out from the Crowd, How to Maximize Your Success, Resume Review/Mock Interview, and Managing Money.

Students were also treated to lunch and a keynote speaker. The speaker, Chad Foster,  has spent the past 16 years creating and implementing critical 21st Century Skills resources for students.
