This grant removes financial barriers and ensures more students have access to the essential skills, confidence, and safety training needed to get on the road.
We are incredibly proud of these students for taking this important step toward independence and responsibility. The future is bright—and it’s headed down the open road!
And a huge thank you to our certified partner Drive On Time for taking this step with us!

Snow Hill Middle School's newest musicians are taking their first steps into the world of band and we couldn’t be more excited! Students began learning how to assemble, hold, and create their very first sounds on their instruments — and the energy in the room was electric!
From clarinets to trombones, flutes to percussion, these young artists are off to an amazing start. We can’t wait to watch them grow, learn, and make music together this year! #WeAreWorcester #ArtsAreAliveInWorcester

✔️ Best practices for evaluation in PE & Health
