The event will feature close to a dozen speakers in fields such as engineering, health care, marketing, information technology, broadcast journalism, law, and more. Speakers will discuss why they chose their specific career path and the education needed to reach their goal.

Breakout sessions will then follow in which Sumner Academy seniors will be given a chance to speak directly with at least three of the speakers. Students will have an opportunity to ask questions and discuss their career aspirations.

The amazing educators at Sumner Academy work hard to prepare students for post high school success.
