Career and Truck Day returned to Stanley Switlik Elementary School on April 29. Now in its 46th year, the annual event drew professionals from all ends of Monroe County. From indoor presentations by county officials and restaurant owners to outdoor demonstrations by bus drivers and law enforcement officers, students spent their days surrounded by career options from the Keys and beyond. Hours of presentations were capped off by a deafening school-wide farewell as students cheered the takeoff of the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District helicopter.
