"College and Career Week is designed to get conversations started about the many, many options out there for students to pursue after high school graduation," said Alana Shockley, BHS College and Career Counselor. "The seniors really enjoyed hearing from their own teachers and recent BHS graduates about their journey after high school and how they landed on their career path. We hope this can be an annual event to encourage our BHS seniors as they are making post-secondary plans!"
