College and Career Fair

DeSoto County seniors are gearing up for a future-focused event, the Senior College & Career Fair, on September 16–17. With dozens of colleges, military, and businesses participating, students will explore pathways to success—whether that means higher education, military training, skilled trades, or joining the workforce.

DeSoto County Schools extends heartfelt thanks to each of the businesses, colleges, universities, and military representatives who are participating in the 2025–2026 Senior College and Career Fair. Your presence and support will make a lasting impact on our students' futures.

Together, we’re helping students explore opportunities, make connections, and take confident steps toward their goals. We couldn’t do it without you! Every student, every pathway, every opportunity.
