Students from Columbus went on a site visit to Sinclair Tractor, Washington. They toured the facility, explored the equipment, interacted with the employees and learned about the different careers available at Sinclair. Career exploration helps students learn about the skills needed for specific careers by observing and interacting with employees in the workplace. A big thank you to Sinclair Tractor for giving our students this Work-Based Learning experience!








Sawyer Foster from the Iowa Army National Guard took these students to the ROTC at the University of Iowa.
