Last Thursday, students at Menomonie Middle School participated in our JA in a Day Career Exploration experience with the Area Chamber & Visitor Center ! The day kicked off with an engaging Career Day, where students connected with professionals from a variety of industries and learned about future career opportunities.

Then on Friday, students took their learning beyond the classroom and hit the road to visit local businesses throughout the community, seeing careers come to life firsthand through workplace tours and real-world experiences.

A huge thank you to all of our volunteers and participating companies for investing your time and sharing your knowledge with the next generation. Stay tuned for another post featuring more photos from Career Day as we receive images from our photographer!
