Nearly two hundred students and parents participated in the ON Education Department’s annual college and career fair, which was held virtually this year. They represented five local high schools and six high schools located outside of Osage County. All registered students completed a post-event questionnaire and were entered in a drawing for a chance to win a door prize.

Due to Covid-19, the education department decided to make the event accessible online with a digital media slide presentation.

Representatives from several career fields sent in videos to present information: esthetician, pipeline inspector, head high school football coach, chief strategy officer, digital strategist, mechanical engineer, sonographer, petroleum engineer, Osage Nation Congresswoman, owner of Serenity Salon, journeyman lineman, neuromonitoring tech, neurosurgeon, registered nurse, business process analyst, assistant professor of Educational Leadership, interior designer, entrepreneur, graduate assistant college football coach, Osage News Editor, solar installer, warehouse manager, A&P mechanic, engineer, reporter, Osage Nation Chief of Police, and field service engineer.

The Osage Nation Education Department would like to thank everyone who attended and helped make this event possible.
