Children love big trucks and candy. This year, students in the Career and Technical Education (CTE) Early Childhood Education program and SkillsUSA at WSWHE BOCES are putting a spin on Halloween. Your average trunk-or-treat event includes decking out cars in the holiday spirit. On October 30, from 2pm to 5pm, trucks from local businesses will roll down to the F. Donald Myers Education Center at 15 Henning Rd in Saratoga Springs, gather in the parking lot, and give out treats to the public. So dress up in your best Halloween costume and enjoy the afternoon. Additional food items will be available for purchase.

We are excited to welcome parents!

On Friday, September 17, 2021, Construction Trades students at the F. Donald Myers Center in Saratoga Springs, worked with the Sleep in Heavenly Peace (SHP)® - NY, Mechanicville chapter to build sixteen beds for children who need them in the area.

On September 8, 2021, WSWHE BOCES honored 23 staff members who earned tenure.

According to research conducted by the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, 2018 report, less than 3.4% of construction trade workers are women. That number is comparable with other SKILLED TRADES when it comes to percent of women.
