BLOOMINGDALE The Transition To Work program at Jefferson County Joint Vocational School is giving special needs students skills to help them both in life and on the job.
Students have learned tools to become more independent and even work, but COVID has temporarily shelved projects such as community worksites and altered operations of the school store. Instructor Christina Henderson said her class has done its best to conform with the changes and they still gain some experience in the process.
