The Career Expo is an event that is meant to expose and give insight of different careers/occupations to students, this event has been going on for 14 plus years, and is available to all classes. In addition to exposing careers to students, some career stands offer internships to help the students figure out if the job fits what they are looking for. At the entrance of the Career Expo they gave out a paper that the students could fill out for a raffle, and luckily 3 Hueneme High students won! Here is what two of them had to say about the event.
