Pattengill Celebrates Women’s History Month with Women in the Workforce Showcase

On March 14, 2024, in honor of Women's History Month, the Pattengill DEI committee and the School Counselor, Joan Lynch, hosted a Women in the Workforce Career Showcase. Pattengill solicited the help of Pattengill parents as well as community members to showcase non-traditional jobs to Pattengill students such as but not limited to designers, architects, art conservators and chemical compliance workers. Each teacher was able to sign up for a guest speaker who highlighted their careers, informing students of the details of the industry as well as their roles and the impact they have in their business or profession. There was a wide variety of different occupations students were able to learn about, providing them with a glimpse into the options they have after graduation and highlighting the importance and impact women have in the workforce.
