RCPS Works Student Job Fair & Transition Services Fair
RCPS Works 2026 will be held on Thursday, April 23 from 3 to 6:30 p.m. at the Berglund Center. Register today!
RCPS Works is an annual job fair sponsored by Roanoke City Public Schools to connect students with employers for summer jobs as well as longer-term employment opportunities. There will also be transition resources available for students with disabilities. RCPS Works also includes Roanoke Summer Connect, a one-stop shop to help elementary and middle school families discover summer programming opportunities. Visit our summer programs webpage for more information about Roanoke Summer Connect.
Many employers who attend RCPS Works will conduct interviews on-site, and students can also participate in interview coaching and resume preparation.
Students should bring their ID and dress for success! Students' families are also welcome to attend. Students who attend may be entered into a drawing for gift cards and other prizes.
Transportation is available for students.
