Business and community leaders from across the San Gabriel Valley are invited to support local student scholarships and experience first-hand what it is like to be a school leader at the unique “Principal for a Day” event on March 8, 2017.

Attendees are then invited to attend a complimentary luncheon where the special guest speaker will be Emily Williams, public speaker, trainer and specialist in workforce development.

Thanks to corporate sponsors, there are 14 high school career scholarships presented at the Principal for a Day Luncheon, held at 11:30 a.m. at the Industry Hills Expo Center in the City of Industry. Music Entertainment will be presented by the Nogales High School Choir, under the direction of Aaron Rodriguez.
