What to Expect at Commitment Day

Commitment Day

What: A two-day event designed to share employment, enrollment and enlistment opportunities to Tolleson Union High School District seniors.

When: September 9–10 (Students will be transported to the site from their schools)

Where: State Farm Stadium

Why: The Tolleson Union High School District encourages all students to commit to a plan after high school whether they choose to enroll, enlist, or be employed. Commitment Day will connect more than 4,000 students with post-secondary options and opportunities to help them finalize their next steps.

This one-of-a-kind event will bring together major in state and out-of-state public and private colleges and universities, trade and specialized schools, all branches of the military, and dozens of employers. Commitment Day is more than a college and career fair. It is a concentrated effort to help our students secure a successful future. Students will listen to presentations, hear what their peers are doing, and chat with employers, colleges, and more.

Parents are highly encouraged to attend! We want our parents to share in this experience and support their student’s future.
