Accounting Students Visit Alpha Natural Resources Offices
On Friday, March 30th, Mrs. Tolliver's Advanced Accounting students traveled to Alpha Natural Resources for a field trip. While there, students were introduced to the accounting software and reporting programs used by Alpha in day-to-day business. They were also introduced to "Ginny", Alpha's search and rescue dog. "Ginny" is a Dutch Shepherd, the first in the country to be trained and used for search and rescue in a coal mine. At the conclusion of the field trip, students were given a tour of Alpha's impressive new facility. Several students have decided that Alpha Natural Resources is somewhere they would definitely like to work in the future!
