Our Jayhawk Claw birthday winners!
The 8th-grade class had a great time during their visit to Albion College and Henry Ford Allegiance/Wardcraft Conveyer. They had the opportunity to witness the dynamics of a workplace and gain insights into college campus life. Thank you to the College & Career Access Center for this awesome learning experience!
