Earlier this week the Mountain View School Division announced that both the Dauphin Regional Comprehensive Secondary School (DRCSS) and the Winnipegosis Collegiate Institue were successful in receiving grants from the provincial government.
The schools applied through the 2021-2022 Skills Strategy Equipment Enhancement Fund (SSEEF) for funding and received word this week that they were awarded the grants.
The DRCSS will be receiving approximately $75,000 which will go towards their Automotive Technology Department to further assist the students in learning real-life skills that could be used in the automotive job world after high school.
Meanwhile, the Winnipegosis Collegiate Institue will be receiving approximately $31,000 from the grant which will go towards the Industrial Arts Department to purchase equipment that students can learn to use including saws and other technology used in the trades like woodworking and metalwork.
