Eighth-grade students from Tiffany Dube’s Family and Consumer Science class at Laconia Middle School visited Lakes Region Community College to participate in an immersive Business Career Expo on Friday, Dec. 5. The event was designed to bridge the gap between classroom learning and the professional world, offering students a firsthand look at the local business industry.
The centerpiece of the expo was a panel discussion featuring a diverse group of leaders from the Laconia business community. Students engaged in a question-and-answer session, asking panelists about their daily operations and seeking advice for their future careers.
Beyond the panel, the expo provided an interactive environment where students could meet and talk one-on-one with many local businesses from the area. To further broaden their horizons, the students were taken on a tour of the LRCC campus, giving them a glimpse of the various other programs and educational pathways offered by the college.
