Over 40 speakers took part during the Tamaqua Area Middle School’s Annual Career Day held last week at the school.
Students were given the option to choose three careers they would like to learn more about.
Middle School counselor and event organizer Mrs. Sue Brickler stated the school’s appreciation to all the guest speakers, faculty, art/computer department, food services department and Principal Chris Czapla.
Brickler added her appreciation to Mary Machay, Cindy Williams and Deb Sweeney.
A quote on the Career Day program by Napoleon Hill read, “No man can succeed in a line of endeavor which he does not like.”
