School officials said it was vital to introduce the students to a diverse work force early so they will be successful, and also so they understand there are more job opportunities than just the NFL and the NBA.
Students were able to interact with police officers, Army cadets, a chef, barbers, hairstylists and KSLA News 12′s Domonique Benn.
Many other professionals from different career fields were also involved.
