“Public Radio in the Public Schools Project”

Upper Cape Cod Regional Technical School Your bridge to the future… Your gateway to success.

Colleagues,

Local NPR for the Cape, Coast & Islands brought their production team to Upper Cape Tech in Bourne as part of the “Public Radio in the Public Schools Project”!

From veterinary sciences to plumbing, culinary arts to cosmetology, Upper Cape Tech is serving a hands-on education to more than 800 students in 15 programs. CAI’s Morning Edition hit the road to visit the Bourne high school, learning about what makes it a special place preparing young people to enter the workplace.

Really a fascinating piece about a terrific Chapter 74 vocational technical school!
