Taking the next step: OH College and Trade Expo features over 60 exhibitors
OH held its annual College and Trade Expo on April 23, attended by hundreds of students and parents from the SD308 community who were interested in the career or college market. “I want to be in the automotive [[industry]]," said OH junior James Creighton. "I want to [[work on]] some old cars, so I came out here to get a better look at and get a better feel [[for the field]].” Creighton was one of the many students from OH who attended the event.
