Sam Boucher, Cale Young, and Dylann Thacker joined Ms. Shaw at the Raise the Bar Workforce Summit at the University of Findlay, where their ideas helped guide conversations about preparing students for tomorrow’s careers.
Students worked alongside educators and business leaders to explore how workplaces use data, storytelling, and AI. Together, they discussed ways schools and local businesses can help students build these skills and connect classroom learning to career opportunities.
What made this event especially exciting? Students had a voice in the conversation—and a chance to influence workforce development right here in our community!
