Inspiring college at Career Day at Potter Junior High

FALLBROOK – Potter Junior High School held its Annual College and Career Day Wednesday, Feb. 1, with visits from service men and women of the Armed Forces, first responders, and local professionals from all over San Diego.

These volunteers visited classrooms where they shared details about their professions, answered questions from students, and helped guide students with their next steps. These special guests included USMC officers, the San Diego Sheriff's office, North County Fire, local artists, business owners, and more.

FUESD Spokesperson Seth Trench shared the district's gratitude for those who attended, "All of us at FUESD are incredibly grateful for our first responders, armed forces, and local professionals who took time from their busy schedules to encourage our students for what's ahead. Their investment in our students will inspire the young people of Fallbrook to know nothing is impossible, and any dream can be achieved with hard work and empathy for others."

The event culminated with a Leadership Rally that included special musical numbers from Potter Junior High students and words of encouragement from local leaders.
