Description

Welcome to the World of Work! This event will welcome more than 2,500 Winston-Salem/Forsyth County 10th graders to explore career possibilities across a variety of industries. Students will have the opportunity to interact with businesses and educational institutions to learn more about the careers that interest them and how to get there. 10th grader tours will be held from 9:45 AM - 1:00 PM.
