Jasper County's 4th Annual Public Safety Career Day was the largest one yet!

Beech Grove VFD Chief James Gunter

“I think there's no higher calling in terms of a career than public service, which is a chance to make a difference in people's lives and improve the world.”

Jacob Lew

Today’s 4th Annual Public Safety Career Day is in the books and it was the largest one yet!

Over 40 entities exhibited, 9 local school districts attended, and over 1,300 local students attended!

Today was not only an opportunity for local public safety and public works entities to showcase the professions, it was also an opportunity to expose today’s youth to the opportunities of making a choice to serve others, thereby improving the world.

Special thanks to the hosts, Deep East Texas College & Career Academy, Jasper ISD, and Jasper High School.
