HR Days
This event is a 2-day event at the high school for participants. The first day career counselors teach students about interview skills, interview dress, and how to write a resume’. The second day, local business people provide mock interviews for the participants. This allows the students to apply what they have learned, and have real-life interview experience.

Printing and Support for the PEACE/PALS program
​BGC partners with the Washington County Chamber of Commerce for the PEACE program. This program provides local, participating businesses with the same core values for their business as are being taught in the schools. Each academic year there are ten core values taught in the Brenham and Burton elementary schools, as well as used on other campuses. The high school mentoring program called PALS connects students with each business to help the business come up with ideas on how to use the monthly core value for their customers and employees.
