There are so many different paths to success. Here's one example. What path works for you? Have you considered a training and future in the trades? @ShelbyCoATC@ShelbyCo_JCTC
My husband has 0 college debt, has a two year degree from @KCTCS in Industrial Electricity, and has a wonderful job with @Toyota as part of their maintenance team. We need to do better at showing students that there are more options out there. Trade jobs ARE successful careers.
