Colton High School's ASPIRE program held its first job and career fair. Nina Baurer’s planning, organizing, and hard work made it a huge success. Nina contacted and confirmed 31 presenters from local businesses and agencies to showcase the wide variety of careers available. The room was buzzing with conversations and hands-on demonstrations of police drones, digital welding, and cyber security. It was an eye-opening experience for the high school students. Nina’s coordinating efforts involved the students from the ground up. She had the Leadership class call and confirm the presenters, advertise for the event and serve as ambassadors to the presenters. It was a real teaching experience for the students. Local businesses such as Colton Coffee, Colton Cafe, and Clyde’s 76 station donated discount coupons for the presenters as a thank you. It was great thinking on Nina’s part since that morning, we had a two-hour school deal,y and some of the presenters did not get the message. She kept her cool, re-grouped, and the show went on! Nina did an amazing job, here is to next year. - Lacey Smith.
