Our 8th graders just can't stop talking about how cool Bath Tech was! This is such a great program for our kids to take part in!

We'd love to hear about why you are passionate about your job, what you do all day, and what skills/training are needed. Please contact Jill Davis, school counselor, at jdavis@aos93.org or 563-3091. We're looking for a wide range of volunteers to share their careers with our students. Thank you!
