¡Estudiantes de secundaria!

Presentaremos a los estudiantes de secundaria opciones y oportunidades relacionadas con diferentes profesiones y trayectorias profesionales.

Esperamos mostrarles a los estudiantes que uno puede experimentar múltiples carreras y que el crecimiento es un proceso continuo. Algunos profesionales que participan son bilingües y estarán felices de hablar con los estudiantes en español.
