Wicomico County Public Schools CTE Program Receives Refurbished Police Vehicle
Wicomico County Public Schools is proud to announce a unique collaboration between the Salisbury Police Department and the Career & Technical Education (CTE) program that will enhance safety at Parkside High School. The Salisbury Police Department generously donated a used police vehicle to the district, which students in the CTE Collision Repair and Criminal Justice classes fully refurbished.
This hands-on project provided students with real-world experience in automotive repair and law enforcement procedures. Collision Repair students worked diligently to restore the vehicle’s exterior and mechanical systems.
This partnership also demonstrates the power of community collaboration and the value of career-focused education. WCPS extends its Thanks to the Salisbury Police Department, Police Chief Dave Meienshein, and Salisbury Mayor Randy Taylor.
Due to inclement weather, Wicomico County Public Schools will have a 90-minute delay today (Dec. 5). Breakfast will not be served in school. Students should follow their school’s instructions regarding the day’s schedule. Please be safe. Thank you.
Our thanks to everyone who took time to nominate one of our outstanding teachers for Wicomico Teacher of the Year. When nominations closed last Tuesday Wicomico County Public Schools had received 803 submissions, so we know our community appreciates its teachers.
We look forward to the recognition of nominees by our schools in December, and then in January the quarterfinalists and semifinalists will be announced. One of the semifinalist teachers will be named the next Wicomico Teacher of the Year on April 9. Excited to find out which of our outstanding teachers that will be!
