Clear Fork Elementary School hosts Career Fair

CLEAR CREEK, WV (WVNS) — Clear Fork Elementary School hosted a career fair on Wednesday, March 27, 2024 and some familiar faces were there to have some fun with the kids, including StormTracker 59 Chief Meteorologist Joe Fitzwater.

Several local businesses were also in attendance. Children from every grade got to explore the fair and learn a little bit about each company present.

The Raleigh County Sheriff’s Office, American Water, and Whitesville State Bank turned out to talk about their careers. Some children of Clear Fork Elementary have tentatively decided on their future jobs partly in thanks to the event.

“I think I’m gonna be a cop,” Demetri Fink stated after being asked about his hopes for a future career. Another student, Addison Dickens, had a different answer.

“A teacher!” said Dickens.
