On Sunday, December 16, 2018, Port Huron Schools Superintendent Jamie Cain announced a new partnership the district is forming with the locally-based global technology, design and manufacturing company P.J. Wallbank Springs., Inc.
● Real world application for students to identify in local manufacturing pathways of all levels.
Engineering STEAM program's field of study.
● Talent development for the next generation of workforce at P.J. Wallbank Springs, Inc. We are developing talent locally, with the intention of creating a career pipeline to retain that local talent.
● Engagement between the school communities and the families who may benefit from career exploration and training at P.J. Wallbank Springs, Inc.
The aim is for Port Huron Schools students to understand the jobs that are available at a company like P.J. Wallbank Springs, Inc. and realize they can train to work there during high school, immediately after graduating high school, or after gaining some additional certification and training or perhaps after pursuing a post-secondary college degree.
More information about our partnership and its specifics will be announced in the new calendar year, including a community-reveal of the new P.J. Wallbank Springs, Inc. Engineering STEAM Lab at Port Huron Northern.
