PRINCETON — The Education Alliance on Monday launched its second annual Hope for the Future: School-Business Partnership of the Year awards, a statewide program recognizing collaborations that support academic success and career preparation for West Virginia K-12 students.
The announcement was made at the Mercer County Technical Education Center in Princeton, which last year was named one of eight regional winners for its partnership with Conn-Weld. The program awarded the center a $2,000 cash prize.
