Luxemburg-Casco School District is not putting on the brakes for more career-based learning opportunities after opening the Ahnapee Diesel Tech program in Casco earlier this school year. State Superintendent Dr. Jill Underly visited the district last week to check out the newly outfitted facility and to learn more about its plans for a new building to foster careers in construction. It would be built on land currently located between the district’s bus garage and Stodola’s IGA. Superintendent Glenn Schlender says they are already working with local businesses to help make the program a reality.

Schlender says the two career-based education programs and their apprenticeship opportunities have opened a lot of doors for students looking to find employment after high school.
