BVI High School Students and their Tech Teachers spent a morning in February going over the benefits of getting the students involved the JVDPS's Sloop Project. The school is trying to raise the awareness of the students in the benefits of helping with the building of the boat. Project director Capt. Kevin Gray gave a 2 1/2 hr seminar about all the different aspects of the building process and how it relates to their future in the BVI's economy and the need for technical skills.  

The jobs program will expand into the main  high school with several of the students signing up for to earn and learn jobs during their holidays from school. Two girls have also signed up to take on the administration of the project. They are going to keep all paper work and clerical work up to date, along with creating a colouring book of the construction for the JVD Primary School.
