Join us for our 14th annual Open House, which is designed to promote career-tech education in Coshocton County. On Thursday, February 16th, from 4 to 8 p.m., the Career Center will open its labs, providing tours and hands-on activities, which highlight the career-tech program offerings.
Career Center students are involved in demonstrating their skills or showcasing a recently completed project. In some lab’s complimentary services are also offered.
Area business and industry representatives and past students are also on-hand to discuss employment and further education opportunities as well as “real-world” job experiences and skills application.
It’s a great opportunity for parents of sophomores to explore the programs further and to determine whether or not career-technical training is the right “next-step” for their child’s education.
Called by many “The Winter County Fair,” the Career Center Open House also opens its doors to hundreds of vendors and agencies from across the county. Participants come to educate county residents on their offerings and to show their support for the Career Center. Many vendors also offer complimentary products and services and/or coupons for discounts on their products or services.
Career Center school board members and staff members serve a complimentary spaghetti dinner with ice cream for dessert, while continuous drawings for hundreds of donated door prizes take place in the school’s Commons area.
Other exciting activities are planned, including a live ice carving, an Xbox 360 gaming competition, and a live cake decorating demonstration by local entrepreneur Stephanie of Party Package Too.
WTNS Radio of Coshocton also participates by setting up a live remote broadcast station which follows the evening’s events and broadcasts interviews with Career Center staff members.
Please come and join the fun at this year’s event!
