From advanced courses and career pathways to the arts and student life, the Class of 2030 visited Bowling Green High School today for the My Options Expo. BGHS Student Ambassadors led groups through a 15-station rotation to explore the many different opportunities offered on campus.
The Expo included several hands-on activities around the building, including the Medical Arts Academy with phlebotomy, nursing, and EMT, as well as the HVAC and Industrial Maintenance Labs. Students also learned about paid internships with BGISD in areas such as Information Technology and Early Childhood Education.
