For her senior project, Karizma Matthews organized "LPSS Fest." This was a career fair specifically catered toward students interested in Law and Public Safety careers, and Karizma hoped to spark interest in younger students who might be interested in the LPSS pathway, which Karizma will complete in May. Karizma invited and coordinated the following agencies to present to HMS & HHS students this afternoon: Herington Police & Fire, Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Geary County District Judge, Morris/Marion County Attorney Michelle Brown, DK County Sheriff's Department, and DK County EMS

Thank you to Karizma's MTSS and pathway teacher, Mr. Hinkle, for guiding Karizma through this process. Good job to Karizma -- HHS is proud of you! #RailerProud
