WA Patriot once again participated in Peninsula School District’s Career and Pathways Expo (CAPE) at Harbor Ridge Middle School. CAPE is an event that engages and promotes 6th through 8th-grade females in STEM pathways. The event includes a motivational keynote speaker and an Expo with teachers showcasing Science and Math core classes, CTE electives, and club opportunities. The final portion of the day features a community outreach event with breakout workshops led by female industry leaders in non-traditional fields. This year, WA Patriot’s Zerah Florance, Kristin Bonney, Lauren Lusk, Katie Johnson and Lauren Garrett created demonstrations on what a career in construction is like by having students participate in a mock Jeopardy game and in a design-build workshop.
