SCHOHARIE - With an eye toward their own futures, the Schoharie high school sophomore class held a student-run career exploration event on Friday that gave them a chance to learn about a variety of occupations and paths.
Students heard from presenters on careers running ranging from biological engineering to the performing arts. We’re proud of our students for taking an active role in shaping their own futures by learning about a variety of possibilities.
Presenters included Chris Kenny, an engineer; Erik McKenny who does graphic design for video games; Jackie Hadam, an attorney for New York State United Teachers; Jason Castle, who spoke with students about research in the field of drug product processing sciences; Travis Lindsey and Justin Forsthoffer, who are highway department workers; Austin Jetton, an actor who toured with the musical productions of Cats and Starlight Express and who also owns a small-batch handmade chocolate business; Laura Rosenthal, who manages a team that determine the rates for New York State health care; and Tylor Stevens, the K-9 officer for the Guilderland Police Department and his four-legged partner, Boreas.
