The 4th grade career fair held at Battle Ground High School was a success!

May 30th, 2023

The career fair offered 4th graders the opportunity to explore a variety of careers and were asked to “Imagine their Future”. The 2019 4th grade career fair was a huge success and everyone was so excited to invite our 4th grade students in person to the 2023 fair. This year, students from Maple Grove Primary, Daybreak Primary, Glenwood Primary, Pleasant Valley Primary, Yacolt Primary, Tukes Valley Primary, Captain Strong Primary and River HomeLink rode buses to Battle Ground High School for the event. Presenters included CTE teachers and high school students, Fire District, Police, Military/Marines and Tapani Plumbing among many more. We saw lots of engaged students asking questions and doing hands-on learning.
