College and Career Fair Coming September 22

 The Hart School District is hosting its 6th Annual College & Career Fair on Thursday, September 22 at Golden Valley High School.  More than 100 colleges and universities from across the country, career technical schools and apprenticeship programs will be available to an estimated 2,500 students and their parents in an exhibit-style format to answer questions about admissions, campus life and financial aid.
The College & Career Fair is part of a larger fair administered by a division of The Association of Independent California Colleges and Universities (AICCU).  The Hart District event is in collaboration with a daytime event held at College of the Canyons for transfer students.  Unlike the COC fair, the Hart District event includes many out-of-state colleges and universities, as well as career schools and apprenticeship representatives.
“We understand that not all of our high school graduates will attend a two-year or four-year college, but they will need post-secondary training if they are to advance to a good paying, promising career,” said Janis Fiock, the Hart School District’s College & Career Advisor and fair coordinator.  “Our fair is designed to provide students with the information they need to make the right college and career choices.”
The tremendous turnout of students and their families at the fair reinforces the mission of the Hart School District’s Career Development Department, which is to provide programs and services that prepare students to be college and career ready.  The fair is promoted to more than 10,000 juniors and seniors and their families.
Sponsors of the event are Signal Multimedia, The Magazine of Santa Clarita, KHTS and SCVTV.
