The state this week recognized Tech’s strong link to skills training, academics and careers by awarding the school $75,000 to expand the network of career opportunities available to Tech students. Buontempo’s stat- ed goal has always been to instill in the mind of employers the belief that Tech is a great place to go to find enthusiastic, skilled young people who want to work. Through its SkillsUSA program participa- tion, Tech has already proven itself on a na- tional stage as a school training students to excel in organizational and leadership skills. Its SkillsUSA proficiency also reflects Tech’s strong commitment among Lynn public schools to community service work. Lynn’s state legislators are enthusiastic supporters of the state’s renewed commit- ment to strengthening the link between voca- tional education and skilled trade careers in Lynn. Like Buontempo and his faculty, state Sen. Thomas M. McGee and state Reps. Bren- dan Crighton and Dan Cahill know a strong skills foundation positions 21st century high school graduates to realistically analyze how higher education can increase their skills. Vocational education students trained in a trade can save money toward college and as- sess from a perspective of work experience if they can improve their careers through higher education. By setting the bar high- er for their students, Buontempo and Tech’s faculty are showing students the sky is the limit for someone with vocational and tech- nical training.
