November 6, 2014

RRISD will be hosting a career fair for freshmen on Friday, Nov. 14, and will be hosted at the Texas State University campus in Round Rock. Times will vary depending on the campus.

While there, freshmen can browse prospective careers, colleges, and different academies offered across the district.

Students will have the opportunity to speak individually with all types of employers, and get an idea as to what they are looking for when they are hiring. In addition, freshmen will also be able to chat with professionals and learn about the different steps they had to take in order to get where they are today.

Hey! I’m Ishani and I’m an associate editor for the Westwood High School yearbook. I’ve been on Westwood Student Press for 2 years now and love it! When I’m not in the newsroom, I’m either dancing or at a Longhorn football game. And if you ever want to bribe me, buy me sweet potato fries from Kerbey Lane or give me some chocolate. Also don’t ever give me cantaloupe because I hate it and then I will hate you.
