Recent Seneca Valley grads return to talk STEM
JACKSON TWP — Students at Seneca Valley Senior High School on Wednesday learned from young adults just a few years older than them that education and careers in science, technology, engineering and math-based fields can be fun, adventurous, challenging and profitable.
Of the 53 Seneca graduates who returned to their alma mater to discuss their college and career experiences in STEM fields for the school’s STEM Alumni Day, two gave their presentations in the classroom of Shelley Keffalas, who teaches pre-calculus/trigonometry at the high school.
The students learned from Ashley Kappeler, who graduated from Seneca Valley in 2015 and the University of Alabama in 2018, that their first career choice might not be the right one, but that many other STEM fields exist that could provide a perfect fit.
