Raton High School 2024 Career Convention Press Release

Raton High School would like to express our thanks and gratitude to all of the community organizations who sponsored our Career Conference as well as the presenters who shared their careers with our students.  On Wednesday, November 13, 2023, sixteen careers were showcased at RHS campus for the 5th Annual Career Conference.  Each career field presenter shared valuable information concerning what education is required to get into the field, what classes students should focus on in high school, etc. while also incorporating a “hands-on” activity for students.  Each presenter spoke to 6 classrooms of students.  It was an excitingly packed educational day for everyone and the information students received was invaluable.  Students networked and made connections with members of the Raton community, and even a few received job offers!!

Thank you to the Raton Public Schools Cafeteria Staff who provided a wonderful Thanksgiving Lunch with all the trimmings!

Thank you to The Raton Crimestoppers and Raton Tiger Booster Club for donating gift cards and tiger merchandise for an ending session raffle.
