A delegation of 28 SkillsUSA students from Eastern Center for Arts and Technology and four advisors, participated in the annual District 2 Career and Technical Student Organization’s Leadership Conference at Pocono Manor Resort last month … and did rather well.

Eastern students won 39 gold medals, nine silver medals and five bronze medals at the event.

More than 175 students, representing seven technical centers in the area, attended.
