Tri-County RVTHS Invites the Community to Annual Showcase Spectacular Event

If you've ever wondered what the difference is between a vocational technical high school and a traditional high school, then you don't want to miss the Tri-County Regional Vocational Technical High School Showcase Spectacular. Tri-County would like to invite the community to learn more about their local vocational technical school in a fun and interactive setting.

Tri-County Regional will host its 2017 Showcase Spectacular on Saturday, December 2nd, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. All members of the community are invited to attend this free event packed with fun activities for the whole family. Raffle prizes include Beats Wireless Headphones and other exciting giveaways.

Each of the school's 16 Career Programs will provide unique activities and games for the whole family to enjoy. Attendees will have the opportunity to operate robots and view a 3D printing demonstration in Engineering Technology. The Early Education program will have many STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) activities for children including crafts and a science experiment.

After working up an appetite, visitors can stop into the cafeteria to enjoy a delicious lunch made by Culinary Arts. Students will be serving chili, pizza, french fries, salad, cookies, brownies, and more. Visitors are invited to take home a variety of pre-packaged meals, side dishes and desserts from Tri-County's student run restaurant, Gerry's Place, which is open to the public daily for lunch.

"Our annual Showcase Spectacular is an event that gives members of the community an opportunity to view what makes quality Career Vocational Technical Education so popular with students, employers and political leaders," explained Superintendent-Director Stephen Dockray. "There will be activities for all ages, and we hope everyone will have a great time experiencing the exciting programs that Tri-County has to offer."

Members of the Tri-County staff will be available as a resource to discuss curriculum, college and career planning, and vocational opportunities.

Campus maps and tour booklets will be provided to those who would like to learn more about the school.
