💼 North Murray Career Connect | AME - Advancing Murray's Entrepreneurs
Today’s students are tomorrow’s workforce—and thanks to a powerful partnership between Murray County Schools and the Murray County Chamber of Commerce, Career Connects are helping bridge the gap between education and employment.
Through this initiative, local businesses and community leaders are stepping into our schools, offering career insight, mentorship, and real-world connections that empower our students to dream bigger and plan smarter.
Together, we’re building futures right here in Murray County—one connection at a time.
