SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP) – Springfield Technical Community College provided career training to students from High Road School of Hartford. STCC’s Workforce Development Center made it possible for students from the High Road School to get a sample of EMT training on Tuesday. Students also attended a modern advanced manufacturing machine shop to learn all about fidget spinners.

“We do promote them to try for community college because I’m the first student to go to school in my family. It’s kind of scary when you don’t have a role model to show you the ropes. I want to be that for my students.” – Allena Hall, Teaching Assistant
