School Spotlights HORIZON SCIENCE ACADEMY - TOLEDO

From Classroom to Career: Future Fair Empowers Students

Horizon Science Academy – Toledo hosted its first in-person Future Fair since pre-COVID, welcoming all students from middle school through 12th grade. The event was made possible through a partnership with Partners in Education and College and Career: Ready, Set, Go!, bringing a wide range of career and educational opportunities directly to students. Attendees explored pathways in various industries, including two-year and four-year colleges, military service, law enforcement, union trades, and more. Representatives from different fields engaged with students, providing valuable insights into future careers and education options. The event was a huge success, inspiring students to start planning for their futures with confidence and excitement.
