Recently, Patty Schaut and her Career Class from Ridgway Area High School participated in a bus tour of local companies. This was the second "Career Cruise" of the year. Ms. Schaut's students have been exploring careers in the classroom in attempts to plan for life after high school. To reinforce what they have been learning, students had the opportunity to tour and meet with employees from local companies in Elk County and get a glimpse of the local job opportunities and learn about employment expectations. Students met with employees from Elk County's Emergency Services, Metaldyne Ridgway, Elk County Foods, Fox’s Pizza, Ridgway Record Print Shop and Ridgmont. Some of the highlights were watching the process of printing the local Ridgway Record and interacting with the residents at Ridgmont. The students enjoyed the day and will use the information they gained as they plan their futures. A great big "Thank You" goes out to the businesses that participated and the sponsors of this event! This event was coordinated by the Community Education Center's (CEC) DISCOVER Partnership and is aimed at supporting career education and creating an awareness of local employment opportunities. If your school or company is interested in participating in a similar event, please contact the CEC at (814) 781-3437 or cec@communityedcenter.com.
