As we watched this helicopter take off at the end of our Career Day we all agreed that training is everything.  Reading Navy how-to- manuals, measuring and buying ingredients for cupcakes, finding the best doctors for a hospital or helping students....reading, math, and science are critical to every career!

 

 

Catch of the Week
