SCOUTS GET GIFT FOR AWARENESS PROGRAM

SCOTT CITY -- The Southeast Missouri Council of Boy Scouts of America has received $1,100 from Blair Industries for funding a career awareness program at Scott City High School.

This is the third year Blair has sponsored the program, which provides students a chance to meet with adults in a vocation they have chosen as a potential career.

Seminar speakers talk with students about career areas and cover topics like educational requirements, salaries, job openings, potential advancement and other items of importance to the student.

The 1991-92 program will include eight to 10 seminars at the school. Each student may attend four. Speakers are chosen from a career interest survey that each student completed earlier in the school year.
