Clio Elementary recently held the first Touch a Truck and College/Career Day. Prior to the event career awareness lessons were presented in classes. There were also hallway displays about being career and college ready, including a board with over fifty college pennants from different states which launched many questions and discussions. The following were participants:
Jerry Hatcher with Clio Fire Department
JP Watson and Steve Ellerbe with Marlboro Electric
Steve English with E&S Fabrication
Daniel Lewis with E&S Crane
Neal McRae with Southeast Farm Equipment
Josh Kinard and Johnnie Winburn with Pepsi
