🔥 MACA Juniors & Seniors Take on Career Exploration! 🔥 Today, our MACA juniors and seniors attended a career fair at SLCC, where they explored prospective schools and employer booths, gaining insight into various career paths and opportunities! 🎓💼 But our JAG students didn’t stop there! 🚒 We then visited the Opelousas Fire Department, where we learned firsthand what it takes to be a firefighter. From career paths in fire service to exploring the bunkhouse and fire trucks, our students got an up-close look at the dedication and skills required for the job. 👨‍🚒🔥 After an exciting and educational morning, we worked up an appetite and made a stop for lunch 🍔🥤 before heading back to school. Not even the bad weather 🌧️ could slow us down—our JAG students are Breaking Barriers & Building Bridges! 💪✨ #MACAJAG #CareerExploration #BreakingBarriers #BuildingBridges #FutureReady 🚀
