Thanks for using The Opportunity Connection! As a Bay County educator, you play an important role in preparing students for their future. Someday, your students will go to work, and they need you to help them learn what it takes to get into the workforce, and, once there, to succeed. More than anyone, you recognize that education is not the responsibility of schools alone, so use The Opportunity Connection to "connect" with employers who are willing to work as your partners. Not sure how this system works? See Frequently Asked Questions.
