🔧 Local Businesses & Industry Professionals — We Want You to Be Part of Toolbox for Tomorrows Leaders!
Citrus County Schools is looking for local businesses and industry professionals who are interested in sharing their careers, expertise and hands-on knowledge with students through our Toolbox for Tomorrows Leaders program.
This engaging 8-week after-school program, kicking off October 12, gives students the opportunity to explore real-world careers, connect with professionals in our community, participate in hands-on projects and build valuable employability skills — all while discovering the courses and career pathways that can help prepare them for their future.
Last year's program featured professionals from a variety of fields, including:
🧑🏫 Personal Training & Fitness
🔧 Automotive & Mechanics
🚔 Law Enforcement & Forensics
We're looking to expand those opportunities this year and would love to connect with professionals in fields such as:
🏥 Healthcare
🏗️ Construction & Skilled Trades
🌱 Agriculture & Natural Resources
💻 Technology
🍽️ Hospitality & Culinary
⚡ Utilities & Electrical
…and many more!
How can you help? Businesses and industry professionals can participate by presenting about their career, leading a hands-on activity, demonstrating skills or equipment, sharing their career journey, or helping students understand what it takes to enter their field.
Your time and expertise can give students a glimpse into careers they may have never considered — and help them see the opportunities available right here in our community. 💙
📅 Program begins October 12
