Gloucester High School Vocational Recognition
Today, members of my team were part of the new Shop-specific
jersey event at Gloucester High School Vocational. 45 members of our business community
partnering with our Gloucester Public Schools, local officials and the
Gloucester Education Foundation is a major step.
It’s about much more than a shirt - it’s about a future for
our students and a future for our economy.
It’s about trying to meet the need that we have now and are
going to have in the future - of needing skilled trades people for our economy.
Students need to know that they can belong to it and they
can play a role in it. They need to know their choice to enter vocational
education is just as important as a student making the decision to go on a path
to college - because we need ALL of them.
