for receiving $50,000 state grant

FREEHOLD, NJ - The Monmouth County Board of County Commissioners congratulated the Monmouth County Vocational School District for receiving a $50,000 Elevate Career and Technical Education Innovation Grant from the New Jersey Department of Education.

"Congratulations to the MCVSD for being awarded this grant, which will support the transformation of health sciences instruction at the Academy of Allied Health and Science in Neptune," said Commissioner Director Thomas A. Arnone. "With cutting-edge technology and interdisciplinary curriculum enhancements, this funding will enhance student learning. MCVSD was one of only six school districts selected statewide, and we're excited to see the impact this investment will have on students' learning experiences."

"The MCVSD provides exceptional opportunities to students from across the County through its rigorous curriculum, dedicated educators, and engaged student body," said Commissioner Dominick "Nick" DiRocco, liaison to the MCVSD. "The Academy of Allied Health and Science equips students with a strong academic foundation, and this $50,000 grant will further enrich their experience by creating authentic, data-driven clinical learning opportunities in Clinical Skills, Dynamics of Healthcare, Nutrition, and Anatomy and Physiology courses."
