What do you want to be when you grow up? A doctor, police officer, teacher, fashion designer, an engineer...so many more career paths to choose. On Thursday, April 27th, Sward hosted its annual Career Day. Sward Eagles were introduced to a variety of occupations and learned how education ties into these various career options. Students became more familiar with their community.
Thank you to all of these amazing professionals that took the time to share a glimpse of their daily life at work.
