CTE Business Program Joins Local Business Leaders 🙌

Our team was grateful to participate in Lake Superior Community Partnership's Business & Breakfast, featuring a conversation about small businesses and their important role in our regional economy and communities.

We were especially glad to have Lawrence Bruce, CTE Business teacher at Gwinn Area Community Schools, and four of his students join us for the event. Opportunities like this allow our CTE students to connect classroom learning with local business leaders and learn more about entrepreneurship, careers, and the businesses that help our communities thrive.

A sincere thank-you to LSCP, today’s panelists, and the event sponsors for bringing education, business, and community partners together.

We’re proud to support opportunities that connect our students with the people and businesses shaping the future of our region. 🌟
