October Chamber Forum explores career readiness programs at Oklahoma City Schools

Last November, voters in the Oklahoma City Public Schools District (OKCPS) approved a historic $955 million bond initiative that is impacting every one of OKCPS’s 66 schools and all its students by providing much-needed resources to improve buildings, technology, transportation and more. 

Now, during the next Chamber Forum, district leaders will highlight the progress of the bond projects nearly a year later and shed light on how these investments will positively impact education in our city by preparing students for future success in the job market.  

The Chamber Forum will be held at 11:30 a.m., Oct. 18, at the Petroleum Club of Oklahoma City, located on the 34th floor of the BancFirst Tower, 100 N. Broadway Ave.    

Forum attendees will learn more about the innovative strategies for workforce development within the district. Participating in the discussion will be:   

• Toby Blair, Executive Director of College and Career Planning, Oklahoma City Public Schools 
• Dr. Sean McDaniel, Superintendent, Oklahoma City Public Schools   
• Scot McAdoo, Director of Workforce Development, Oklahoma City Public Schools   

The cost to attend the October Chamber Forum is $45 for Chamber members and $55 for nonmembers. To register, visit okcchamber.com/octoberforum.
