GRANTS!!

Career Centers Share in Equipment Grant from the Pittsburgh Business Times 
"The AW Beattie Career Center will share in a series of grants from the Pennsylvania Department of Education to help career and technical centers add new industry-standard equipment into their training programs. AW Beattie Career Center will get $43,953 and the Eastern Westmoreland Career and Technology Center will get $34,112 from the program, which the Department of Education said will assist the schools in training students for what it called "high-priority" jobs."
This is a very important element to keeping technical ed current and really useful to potential employers.  The newest technologies MUST be in the classroom.
