PARTNER SPOTLIGHT

“Aiden has demonstrated a level of commitment necessary to succeed in college and beyond.  He takes his work seriously and seeks out assistance as necessary in order to complete projects in the shop setting with accuracy.”  Aiden will be attending White Mountains Community College in the fall.

“Casey has demonstrated that he is a reliable and responsible individual.  He brings a positive can-do, will-do attitude to the shop and classroom.  Casey takes initiative in the shop setting on a regular basis to assist other students.  As an automotive student, Casey has demonstrated that he has an aptitude for the discipline.  I am certain that Casey will be an asset to the automotive industry in the future working as a technician.”
