🌟 Investing in the Future: Bristol Aggie's $2.5M Capital Skills Grant
Bristol County Agricultural High School is proud to have received a $2.5 million Capital
Skills Facilities Grant from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in 2023. Over the last
2 years we have taken a strategic approach to update our facilities that were not
completed during our renovation that was completed in 2022. This significant
investment allows us to complete essential projects and purchases following our recent
campus construction and renovation.
Impact on Bristol Aggie: This funding enables us to:
● Address deferred maintenance projects that are critical to the safety and
functionality of our campus.
● Enhance our vocational programs with new equipment and resources, ensuring
our students receive hands-on, industry-relevant training.
These improvements align with our mission to provide high-quality academic,
specialized Agricultural vocational education that prepares our students for the evolving
demands of the workforce and post-secondary education.
We extend our gratitude to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for this generous
support, which will have a lasting impact on our students and the broader community.

Workplace Wednesday! This weeks Workplace Wednesday highlight is Victoria Stefrino! Tori is a Junior co-op student who works at Palmer River Equestrian Center in Rehoboth as a farm hand intern. Her daily tasks include completing routine barn chores and assisting with lessons. She also learns many new skills in the horse industry from other workers that allow her to gain more experience when working with horses. A unique aspect of Tori’s job is teaching children and beginner adult students about life skills in horsemanship! Tori’s favorite part of the job is working with children and watching them progress, she also loves the environment. This internship benefits Tori because the work environment and the children she teaches gives her more experience in her interest of becoming an equine assisted therapist. This Internship gave her the conformation that she wanted to pursue her field of interest. Thank you Palmer River Equestrian Center for providing a unique experience for our co-op students that allow them to gain more experience in the work force! #CultivatingExecellence #BAPride #Horses #Equine #FarmHand

Juniors in Arboriculture are preparing for their 29th Annual Tree Climbing Jamboree!
