Students in the Academy of Hospitality & Tourism at Wenonah High School gained valuable career information through two job shadowing programs during October. Joining other district academies on October 8th and 9th, they attended the Birmingham Water Works Board Job Shadowing Program.
On October 22, the students visited DoubleTree, Embassy Suites, the BJCC, McWane and Regions Field as they learned from those who work in the industry. Wenonah High School principal Regina Carr-Hope expressed her appreciation for these businesses which are partnering with the AOHT to assist in their mission to inspire and prepare students to enter hospitality professions. Angela Lee-Smith is the director of the academy.
