Career Conference Marks 31st Year This year’s annual career conference marked its 31st year. Mr. Dick Johnson, guidance counselor, invited representatives from many schools, colleges, and armed services to talk to the students about career opportunities and educational requirements. The students were not scheduled into particular conferences but were able to go to any representative they preferred.
