I wanted to highlight Cody from yesterday’s roundtable at the Franklin County Career and Technology Center.
His story is a powerful reminder of why technical schools that offer skilled trades are so important and vital to our communities. Programs like these give students the opportunity to build real-world skills, find their path, and create successful futures.
Thank you, Cody, for sharing your inspiring journey.

May 1st - First Decoration Day celebrated in 1865. What is now known as Memorial Day was first observed in Charleston, South Carolina, on May 1st. This "Decoration Day" was organized by formerly enslaved people to honor Union soldiers buried in a mass grave at the Washington Race Course. The event involved a parade, ceremonies, and the decoration of graves with flowers.
We had a fantastic roundtable discussion today at the Franklin County Career and Technology Center in Chambersburg, PA.
Hearing directly from the students about their experiences and the impact this school has had on their lives was truly inspiring and impressive. We were also joined by dedicated administrators, local businesses that employ Career Tech students/graduates, along with our state representatives and county officials.
Career and technical education is opening doors, building skills, and preparing the next generation for success in the workforce.
Thank you to everyone who participated in this meaningful event and for your continued commitment to our students and community.
April 30, 1975 - The Vietnam War came to an end as Saigon fell, marking the close of one of the longest and most challenging conflicts in American history.
This day reminds us of the sacrifices made by the men and women who served during the Vietnam War and the families who supported them at home. More than 58,000 Americans lost their lives, and many more carried the lasting effects of their service.
