The normally hallowed and quiet halls of Anadarko Petroleum came alive as 63 students from George Washington and Sheridan High Schools took over. Okay, they didn’t really take over, but they did experience first-hand what it takes to be a geophysicist, petroleum engineer and accountant, among other professions. The students participated in the JA Job Shadow: Energy Industry program, which gives high school students the opportunity to explore jobs at energy companies in the Rocky Mountain region and visit a company to gather information and observe the business.
26 Volunteers from Anadarko participated and visited the high schools the day prior to the company visit to prep the students about what to expect. It was a lot of fun!
