A huge thank you to Diana from Poppy Salon for visiting our cosmetology students and sharing her expertise in makeup application! 💄✨ We truly appreciate you taking time out of your day to pour into our students and inspire the next generation. It’s especially meaningful to see one of our own come full circle—Diana is also an alum of SWTC, and it’s so rewarding to watch our former students return to give back. Moments like these remind us why we love what we do! 💕 Thank you again, Diana—we loved having you!

After the conference, the students then attended the game to see everything they had learned about come together. The students had a wonderful experience!!💼🏀⚡️ #CareerDay #BPA #Thunder #swtc

Congratulations to our top student businesses: 🥇 1st Place – Blessed Bundles by Emily Dobbins 🥈 2nd Place – Hook n Home by Katie Day Many student booths completely sold out, reflecting both the strength of their business ideas and the incredible support from our community. 👏 A huge shoutout to Denny and Altus McDonald’s for generously sponsoring our Market Day prizes and supporting our students! 🏆 1st Place received a $100 gift card 🏆 2nd Place received a $50 gift card 🍔 In addition, every student contestant received a free meal, making the day even more special! We would like to extend a sincere thank you to our SWTC students, staff, and the Altus community who came out to shop and support. Your encouragement made this first event truly special. This Market Day served as a valuable soft launch experience, giving students the opportunity to test their products, interact with real customers, and gain meaningful feedback. These insights will help them refine and grow their businesses as they prepare for larger-scale opportunities. We are incredibly proud of what our students accomplished and are excited to build on this success in the future. #SWTC #Entrepreneurship #MarketDay #StudentSuccess #FutureBusinessLeaders
