Mayor Sarno states, “CDO Tim Sheehan and I are proud to continue to highlight the diverse reach our local ARPA funding has provided in our community. The ARPA funding provided to the nonprofit, World Is Our Classroom, will provide our Springfield Public School students with real-world experience to enhance their education. I want to thank HCC President George Timmons and VP of Community Outreach Jeff Hayden for partnering with our local nonprofit to utilize their healthcare facility to simulate a healthcare setting where our students can learn in a lab setting.”
Springfield High School students are getting first-hand look at career pathways in five of the region’s fastest-growing sectors: Transportation Engineering, Manufacturing Technology, Health Care, Clean Energy, and Biotech/Biomed/Biomanufacturing.
