Career fair draws about 80 vendors and roughly 900 students, district says
Summary
District leaders praised an expansive career fair with roughly 80 vendor booths and around 900 student attendees from 11 schools, crediting Willamette ESD partners and volunteers for logistics and outreach.
High school principal (S7) and assistant principal (S5) described the district's recent career fair as a major success: roughly 80 vendors and approximately 900 students attended across sending schools. "80 vendors, 900 kids ish," S7 said, and S5 noted 115 students completed a post-event survey and several students reported immediate job offers or interviews.
Both principals credited the Willamette ESD partnership (Willamette WorkReady) for logistical support and named volunteers and staff who helped run the event. Administrators said the fair offered real employment and internship leads for students and emphasized the role of industry volunteers who provided time and expertise.
