$500,000 Given to Local Schools

August 27, 2020 by Ben Glover

– New Funding for Local Schools –

Amarillo, Bushland, Canyon, Highland Park, and River Road Independent School Districts will be receiving new funds to develop career and technical education courses.

Last week a Virtual Check Signing and Presentation was hosted over Zoom to commemorate this achievement and to recognize the efforts put forth to make this opportunity possible.

TWC Commissioner Representing Employers, Aaron Demerson, signing the TWC contribution to the $500,000.

Partnerships for the Panhandle

Students taking part in these courses can thank The Amarillo Economic Development Corporation (EDC), the Panhandle Workforce Development Board and the Panhandle Regional Planning Commission (PRPC), and Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) for the coordinated effort and support given towards this project.
