Making critical academic choices in middle and high school will allow students to take advantage of post-high school education, he said. Partnerships with institutions like Tri-County Technical College help to build the highly skilled workforce of the future, he said.

Building partnerships with Tri-County and business and industry can develop and expand the workforce skills of the people. But ultimately we work in education to change people's lives for the better.
Education is about the liberation of the human spirit.
