Work Partnership Opportunities
Work Wednesdays:
Companies can come into the building during the student's lunchtime and advertise employment opportunities. In the past we have had companies come in and leave with new employees!! If you are interested in this event, please contact JamieLyn Johnson at jamie.johnson@southwestschools.org
Lunch to Learn:
Would you like to educate students on what your company or organization has to offer them? This is a time where students can sign up and bring their lunch into our Think Tank to hear about opportunities that are here in our community or what they can do after high school. If you are interested in this event, please contact JamieLyn Johnson at jamie.johnson@southwestschools.org
Company Spotlight:

Partnership with ICRC
ICRC is a local broadcasting system which covers local news, sports, and much more. Harrison's Career Readiness program has been lucky enough to partner with them on a video that covers what we offer for career ready and why we offer it. The video will be out soon, but enjoy some pictures from the day!
Cincinnati Incorporated (CI) Manufacturing Day
On October 1st students from both the junior high and high school were invited to tour the CI plant on Kilby Road for Manufacturing Day. CI had several of their workers take students on the tour and explain what they were seeing. Students were able to connect what they are learning in the classroom with how it translates into employment.
Southwest District appreciates the time and energy that went into making this event happen for our students and staff.
