20 T 7 college anel career fair:

On November 8, 2017, Lāna'i will host its very own college and career fair at Lāna'i High and Elementary School in Lāna'i City. This is a unique and important opportunity for the students of Lāna'i and their families, as well as island educators, to be able to have face-to-face conversations regarding educational and career

opportunities. Costs associated with travel prohibit many families from being able to attend the college fairs held on other islands. The college and career fair will be held at the Lāna'i High and Elementary School gymnasium.

Lāna'i High and Elementary School, LHES Foundation, UH Maui College and Pūlama Lāna'i are excited to again be partnering this year to bring to LHES the annual College and Career Fair. Thefairwill consist of 60-80 presenters representing Colleges, Universities, Career pathways anel programs all bringing resources from throughout the state to strengthen our students 'planfor theirfuture.

The highlight of the event last year was the Coast Guard who Ianded their helicopter in the middle of the LHES campus and we were also fortunate to have Pashyn Santos who gave our students some insight into the entertainment anel meelia
