Business Educaiton Network

The Business Education Network and Willmar Senior High welcomed Central MN Jobs and Training Services on December 4th. Students played Jenga while answering questions about mental health. Zero Hour is the first hour on Wednesdays at Willmar High School scheduled every other week for students to catch up on tests or missing work. Those that do not have work to catch up on are in the commons area until classes start. This provides the opportunity to showcase all the fantastic businesses in the Willmar Lakes Area. If you would like to connect with students, please reach out to Program Coordinator Jennifer Lindquist at BENCoordinator@willmarareachamber.com to schedule your date to attend.
