CEOs in Schools

Description

What is CEOs in Schools?
On February 19^th, 2021, nearly 170 Tampa Bay area CEOs will volunteer their time with a Hillsborough County Public elementary school. Business Leaders will have the opportunity to, firsthand, witness what our public schools educators and students experience every day. Business leaders will gain a new perspective on the vital role our schools play in preparing students for success, while also lending their own perspective and insights.
