An Educational Success Story Rewarded
Yesterday, the school made a little noise by earning the respect (and $40 million in donations) from two local philanthropists, Lee Rowan and the Lenfests.
Nice job by the school's administration and the donors to get together for such a worthy cause.
Trade and vocational schools too often get the short end of the educational stick. While most high school kids are learning the joys of parroting the latest craze in environmental science or reading the Cliff's Notes for Moby Dick, the students at Williamson actually learn how to make things. And do things.
We need more school like Williamson in this country and the attention (and dough) of big wheels like Rowan and Lenfest could make that happen.
Congrats to all.
