Tech School Invites Public to Visit
Mark your calendars for Wednesday night, December 2nd, if you’ve ever wanted to tour Assabet Valley Regional Technical High School. The annual Exhibit and Admissions night will kick off at 6 PM and end at 8:30 PM. There will be Admissions Information Sessions in the school auditorium at 6 and again at 7 for those interested in how the admissions process works. Assabet , although part of the public school system, requires interested students to apply for admissions, as space is limited. The school has seven communities that are considered ‘in-district’ – Berlin, Hudson, Marlborough, Maynard, Northborough, Southborough, and Westborough. In addition, students from Boylston, Clinton, Shrewsbury and West Boylston are invited to apply with the approval of their superintendent of schools.
Throughout the evening, technical programs will have open doors and instructors and students will be available to demonstrate and discuss curriculum. All departments, both academic and technical, as well as many athletic teams and extra-curricular activities, will have booths in the cafeteria. The House Carpentry program will offer many hand-crafted wooden items for sale, ranging from magazine and spice racks to desks and secretaries. Several other programs will offer crafts and door prizes. Always a big draw is the Foreign Language department’s sampling of cultural culinary delights. The Cafeteria staff as well as the Culinary Arts department will also be offering food samples.
Admission to the event is free, the public is welcome. Spokesperson, Cindy Zomar, suggests, “We hope to have a lot of local eighth grade students and their parents come through, giving us an opportunity to showcase the spirit and atmosphere that defines Assabet Valley. By talking to our staff, the parents will find that individual students matter to us, that a high school can offer more than just a diploma, that college prep and advanced placement courses are readily available, and that graduating with a marketable skill can certainly help with those college bills! We’re looking forward to a great night!”
