“Expanding Horizons: Wes Watkins Technology Center Hosts College Fair for Local High School Students”

On September 9, 2024, Wes Watkins Technology Center hosted its annual College Fair, drawing students from partnering high schools across the region. The event primarily catered to juniors and seniors, providing them with a valuable opportunity to explore their post-secondary options. Representatives from a wide range of colleges and universities, not only within Oklahoma but also from neighboring states like Texas and Arkansas, were present to engage with students.

The College Fair was designed to give students a chance to learn more about various academic programs, admissions processes, and scholarships available at each institution. It allowed students to ask specific questions and gain insights directly from college representatives, which is often more personal and informative than relying solely on online research.

For many students, this event was particularly beneficial because it brought colleges to their doorstep, providing access to institutions they might not have the chance to visit otherwise. In rural areas, where visiting multiple colleges can be financially and logistically challenging, this kind of event opens doors to new possibilities and helps students make informed decisions about their future.

The College Fair is just one of many initiatives organized by Wes Watkins Technology Center to support the educational and career aspirations of its students. By fostering these kinds of interactions, Wes Watkins continues to play a pivotal role in preparing local students for success after high school, offering them both the guidance and the opportunities they need to pursue higher education or vocational training.
