This month, we joined a local elementary school's first-ever Career and Vehicle Day! Yolanda, our Neighborhood Specialist for the area, visited nine classrooms and answered students' questions about what the City does, career pathways, and more. She also brought along 300 goodie bags to pass out throughout the day! A big thank you to the school for including our Neighborhood Specialists in the day.
