Posted by Mary Pannabecke... on Tuesday, March 31, 2015

Apollo Career Center will hold its third annual Apollopalooza on April 16 from 5:30-7 p.m. Apollopalooza will showcase both the high school and adult education programs, as well as the newly opened academic and career tech wings. The event is free and open to the public.

“Because Apollo is not a traditional high school or college, and because adults and high school students are being trained during the day and evening, Apollo is opening up the building, for the public to see and experience what Apollo students learn everyday,” said Dana Dukes-Norton, district communications manager.
