Stephen Decatur High School students Azariyah J. and Amiyah S. are working as youth apprentices at Buckingham Elementary School. Both students completed the Early Childhood program at Worcester Technical High School, and now spend their mornings working in a PreK3 classroom applying their skills and gaining valuable experience.
I was so proud to present SHMS's Trevor B. with a Superintendent's #ChallengeCoin today. This remarkable young man has used his experience with diabetes to advocate and educate his fellow students on how to care for their own health. Congratulations to Trevor, and I look forward to checking back in with him later this year! - LT #WeAreWorcester #WorcesterProud #ConnectionCareCommunity 🫶🏻🫶🏼🫶🏽🫶🏾🫶🏿
