SCHENECTADY – Friday was Career Day at National Grid.
The company welcomed students from local BOCES and career and technical education programs.

Friday was also a day of service for National Grid employees.
"It gives them an opportunity to talk to workers that work here at National Grid, it gives them an opportunity to see what they’re doing, and learn about the jobs that are going to be available to them when they graduate," said Matthew Ward with Capital Region BOCES.
Friday was also a day of service for National Grid employees. They volunteered at local parks, food banks and animal shelters.
