Career Fair By Mr. J. Floyd

                 On Monday, November 22, Whitmire Community School held its annual career fair.  Despite a recession that has affected the economic climate, several area businesses and agencies took time to set up tables at our school and share career opportunities with students.  In addition to booths in the multi-purpose room, there was an outside display which included fire engines, police cruiser, and trucks from Newberry Electric Co-op and USDA Forest Service.  Several of the businesses and agencies represented included former Whitmire students.   All students from PK – 12 were given an opportunity to visit the career fair.

Agencies and businesses that participated this year included Whitmire Fire Department, USC Union, US Air Force, US Air Force Reserves, Family Connections, Newberry Police Department, Newberry DJJ, First Citizens Bank, USDA Forest Service, Newberry County Memorial Hospital, Newberry Hospital Wellness Center, Optometric Eye Care, Newberry County DHEC, Newberry Electric Co-op, Newberry County Sheriff’s Department, Piedmont Technical College, Remington College, and Wyotech.
