Avondale Students Participate in 10th Annual Oakland County Manufacturing Day
AHS students had the exciting opportunity to take part in the 10th Annual Oakland County Manufacturing Day!
The event included a visit to HiroTec, a global automotive industry leader specializing in the production of doors, exhaust systems, and closure manufacturing equipment. During the visit, students were introduced to the wide range of career opportunities available at HiroTec and received an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the manufacturing floor. They witnessed firsthand the transformation of raw steel into a specially designed product, made just for them, and even took home their very own finished piece. It was an inspiring and educational day for all involved! A big thank you to Andrew Cray at HiroTec who organized this great experience for us!
