West Side College & Career Day 2026
What an incredible day of exploring possibilities, making connections, and preparing for the future!
We are so thankful for the colleges, universities, businesses, military representatives, and community professionals who took time out of their busy schedules to invest in our students.
Students from West Side, Concord, South Side Bee Branch, and Guy-Perkins had the opportunity to explore careers, ask questions, and discover the many paths available after high school. We hope they left with new ideas, valuable information, and excitement about the opportunities ahead!
To every representative who joined us, THANK YOU! Your time, encouragement, and willingness to share your knowledge and experiences make a difference in the lives of our students. We appreciate your investment in the next generation!
