According to P-H-M Education Foundation Executive Directory Jennifer Turnblom, the College and Career Fair at Penn brings in schools and companies with post-high school educational opportunities, whether it be in a traditional classroom, enlistment opportunities, apprenticeship program or skills training.

This community partnership offers organizations colleges and businesses the opportunity to meet students from one of the best high schools in the state and share the opportunities they have for them.
