AMERICUS — Recruiters from school systems throughout the state of Georgia will display at the 2023 Teacher Career Fair sponsored by Georgia Southwestern State University’s College of Education and Chattahoochee-Flint RESA. The fair will be held Feb. 24 from 10 a.m.-1 p.m. in the GSW Intramural Gym (located in the Storm Dome) at 800 GSW State University Drive in Americus.
