Open House Article in Whitman-Hanson Express

Hello SSVT Community,

The 2012 SSVT Open House was a fantastic success, as evidenced by the nearly 200 students and their families who attended, along with a great showing of alumni!  What attendees witnessed were our students and instructors in their shop settings doing what they do best.  Families also were treated to a fantastic culinary display in the cafeteria and also were provided important information from our guidance staff, academic department heads, and our athletics program.

Whitman-Hanson Community Access producer Kevin Tocci attended the event and with the assistance of our Vocational Director Deborah Collins, videoed clips from our shops during the Open House. That footage is being edited now and once finished, it will run on the Whitman-Hanson local cable access channel, and we will be able to distribute it to other local cable stations in the district and also link it to our website.

Thie Whitman-Hanson Express also covered the event and published an article this week  http://www.whitmanhansonexpress.com/whitman-hanson-news/9505-kicking-the-educational-tires.html

I hope you and your families have a restful vacation.  I'm off to the mall!

Thank you Mrs. Bumpus!

Hello SSVT Community,

As the school prepares to wrap up for our December vacation and look with ahead to the new year, this is also an important time for one of our faculty members, Mrs. Jeanie Bumpus.  Mrs. Bumpus is retiring after 27 years of service to the students of South Shore Vo-Tech.  More than anything, Mrs. Bumpus maintained a firm belief that all students can be successful, and many, many graduates can attribute their post-secondary success to her efforts.

We wish Mrs. Bumpus the very best in the next chapter of her life with her family and we thank her for her dedicated service!
