Three Shaler Area students represented A.W. Beattie Career Center in Allegheny County’s inaugural career signing day on Tuesday, May 7.
The county-wide celebration, which was held at the Energy Innovation Center, was patterned after collegiate signing days, but focused on high school seniors who will use their career and technical education training to commit themselves to successful futures in college, the work force, or the military.
Students were joined by their families, representatives of the organizations they committed to, A.W. Beattie administration and staff, and administrators from their sending school district to celebrate their future plans.
The following Shaler Area students participated in the recognition event:
Merritt Montgomery, dual-enrolled in A.W. Beattie’s Early Childhood Education program, will attend Community College of Allegheny County and transfer to Slippery Rock University or Clarion University.
Jake Cavlovich, dual-enrolled in A.W. Beattie’s Automotive Technology program, will work for Glenshaw Automotive.
Anthony Oklota, dual-enrolled in A.W. Beattie’s HVAC program, is already working for Hampton Mechanical, Inc.
