What a beautiful day for a car show! This past Sunday, over 320 cars arrived on the front lawn to compete in the 30th annual Pathfinder Tech car show! Thank you to everyone who came out to support the event! We are looking forward to seeing everyone at next year's event!

Throughout the past week, 16 Seniors from our Electrical, Horticulture, and Carpentry programs participated in an intensive, week-long pre-apprenticeship training program from the New England Laborers Training Trust Fund. Funded by a contract awarded through the MA Department of Transportation, the intent of the program is to create a pipeline of tradesmen and tradeswomen who are interested in establishing careers on MassDOT highway construction projects.
During the pre-apprenticeship training program, students learned industry-specific skills (such as work zone safety, surface lining and grading, and construction math), participated in a hands-on concrete project, and also earned their CPR/First Aid and AED certifications.
A special thank you goes to Matt Morse and the Palmer Department of Public Works, and to the New England Laborers Training Trust Fund. The Palmer DPW donated gravel for the concrete project, and took time out of their busy schedules to speak with students about the department and its equipment. The New England Laborers Training Trust Fund graciously donated concrete for the new concrete pad to park horticulture equipment.
Congratulations students on your achievements!
