The schools were Andrean High School, Chicago High School for Agricultural Sciences, Crown Point High School, Lowell High School and LaPorte High School. Students toured the show floor and learned about different types of packaging equipment and their applications.

Following the show floor tour, students were treated to a learning luncheon with speakers Stephan Girard, PMMI’s Director Education & Workforce Development and Dr. Niaz Latif, Dean, College of Technology, Purdue University Northwest.

Students learned about packaging, career opportunities, education opportunities, and engaged in an active question-and-answer session.
