SAME - Summer Advanced Manufacturing Program

Every summer, students in grades nine and above gain experience with advanced/smart manufacturing in the three-week Summer Advanced Manufacturing Program, or SAME. They learn and practice skills in CNC machining, mills, lathes, blueprints, CAD/CAM, and Fusion 360. The program is free for participants with support from Monroe County, and everyone who completes the program earns three Monroe Community College credits. In addition to working in the machining lab, the participants take field trips to local advanced manufacturing companies. Registration for SAME is available in the spring at http://monroe2boces.org/SAME.

A big thank you to the CTE students on our BOCES 2 Team who are supporting the community at this year's Stroll for Strong Kids. Click on the video above to see some of our student representatives from SkillsUSA and National Technical Honor Society who were featured on Good Day Rochester.

WEMOCO student members of SkillsUSA and National Technical Honor Society visited Golisano Children's Hospital to share details about the school-wide Stroll for Strong Kids, coming up on June 1. They appeared on 13 WHAM ABC with reporter Michael Schwartz and spoke with hospital representatives Meghan Barnhardt and Jennifer Johnson. Each of the students had connections to the hospital, either as former patients or by knowing relatives and friends who were patients. You can donate to the hospital on behalf of the WEMOCO team.

Homework Hotline

Several WEMOCO programs were featured on episodes of WXXI's Homework Hotline television program, a show that was broadcast throughout New York state. According to CTE Executive Principal Jill Slavny, “Homework Hotline allowed viewers to have a glimpse inside our classrooms and to learn about the opportunities our students have when they leave WEMOCO.” Click on the links below to see each of the featured programs.
