On Thursday, February 28th, Northwood 7th graders participated in a Career field trip to Spooner. They toured T&T Tool (manufacturing), Crystal Creek (agriculture), and Spooner Health (health). The tours allowed local businesses the opportunity to interact with students about the types of skills they are looking for in employees, possible routes of education beyond high school, and to highlight their standards of care and service to both customers and the local communities.
