“Dutchess BOCES is grateful to our industry partners for their willingness to share their time and expertise with our students,” Deputy Superintendent Dr. Jodi DeLucia said. “Giving them an opportunity to see the future and how what they are learning about in their Career and Technical Institute classes applies can only increase their enthusiasm.
