The Sevastopol School District was the recipient of a large grant from the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development which will reimburse the school for technology upgrades. The district was awarded $44,040 in support of their “Advanced Automation Lab” project. Purchases for the project were several Amatrol Tabletop Smart Factory Upgrades including RIFD/sensors, portable PLC troubleshooting, mini PLC programming software, ethernet, barcode, and visual communication systems.
The grant is through the DWD’s Expanded Wisconsin Fast Forward Technical Education Equipment Grant Program. These grants help school districts get reimbursed for materials enhancing vocational and technical education.
