PARENTS & STUDENTS

2025 Dates Announced - November 6 & 7

Your Child’s Future Starts Now

Johnston County is growing, and so are high-wage career opportunities. Today, 65% of jobs require an associate degree or advanced technical training — far different from what many of us experienced. Helping your child understand these new education and career pathways is more important than ever.

The choices your 8th grader makes this year can shape their future. Through early college, technical courses, and paid apprenticeships, students can earn high-paying jobs right out of high school — often without college debt.

At JOCO WORKS WOW on November 6 & 7, 2025, your child will explore real-world career options, meet top employers, and learn what it takes to succeed.
