Once again, the Beacon High School Career Fair has issued its open call to all types of businesses to participate in this year’s 2023 Career Fair on Friday, May 19th from 10:30am - 1:30pm. Registration is open now and can be done online here.

Last year was the fair’s first time back after the forced closure from the pandemic, and the fair’s organizer and Restorative School Councilor, Michele Pohlmas, who was in her 17th school year, was thrilled to bring businesses and students back together again. “This event gives the students the opportunity to explore what they may be interested in, once they begin the next chapter of their life after their time here at Beacon High School.” See a video interview with Michele below.

Participating in the Career Fair is a great way to connect with students and to feel the vibe of what the current generation is really like. A Little Beacon Blog and Tin Shingle have participated for a number of years, and we are always touched by the quiet students who approach our table to share how they love to write or draw, and are looking for avenues for which to do that.

How To Register To Participate In Beacon High School’s Career Fair

Businesses who have participated in the past include include illustrators, journalists, entrepreneurs, emergency responders, barbers and hair stylists, drone flyers, and so many others.

The annual career fair will take place on Friday, May 19th from 10:30am - 1:30pm. Each participant will have a table on which they can display items which represent their career/profession and can serve as talking pieces with our students. A light breakfast and set-up will begin at 9:30am and lunch will be served around 11:30am.
