The Randolph County School System was proud to be represented at the recent Power of Five Business After Hours, hosted by the Liberty Chamber of Commerce. This event brought together members from all five Randolph County Chambers for an evening of connection, collaboration, and community.
Dr. David Cross, Director of Career & Technical Education for RCSS, served as guest speaker and highlighted the district’s commitment to preparing students for future success. He shared updates on the Work Ready Randolph initiative and the Workforce Roadmap—a countywide effort designed to equip students in grades 5–12 with real-world skills, industry-recognized credentials, and college credit opportunities. Through 26 Career & Technical Education pathways, and in partnership with Randolph Community College, students are gaining the tools they need to thrive in today’s workforce.
Attendees also learned how local businesses can partner with the school system to strengthen Randolph County’s talent pipeline and build a brighter economic future.
We extend our appreciation to Dr. Cross, the Liberty Chamber of Commerce, and all who made the evening such a successful celebration of education, business, and workforce development.
