Duniway 8th graders had a chance to hear from local industry and business experts about what their jobs are like and what it takes to get into the field.

Students have been exploring the MHS Career Pathways as they begin planning their transition to high school, and the speakers were pulled from fields related to the pathways.

The goal is to get students to envision life beyond high school and what education they will need to get there.

Speakers included business people, doctors, nurses, teachers, dietitians, EMTs, engineers and more. Find out more about Mac High’s Career Pathways here.
