This year, Alignment Rockford will host its 7th Annual Academy Expo on October 24th. The Expo is an event that provides an opportunity for all Rockford Public Schools’ 9th graders to engage with area businesses to explore potential career opportunities and helps forge a relevant link between student curriculum and future careers. The event also helps students to make an Academy selection in January for their freshman year. 

Katy – Alignment Rockford Operations Manager, and Earl Wilsey – Academy Expo Team Co-lead, VP or Schmeling Construction, were on Eyewitness News this morning to talk about the Expo and publicly ask businesses to sign up as an Industry Expert.
