Tri-County Teams Up with<br />

Plainville Public Library<br />

Tri-County Regional Vocational<br />

Technical High School<br />

and the Plainville Public Library<br />

are pleased to announce an educational<br />

partnership that will<br />

give students the opportunity<br />

to create a new interactive play<br />

structure area in the Children’s<br />

Library. The project will be educationally-focused<br />

on curriculum<br />

for children ages 0-6.<br />

This project is brought to you<br />

with federal funds provided by the<br />

Institute of Museum and Library<br />

Services and administered by the<br />

Massachusetts Board of Library<br />

Commissioners (MBLC). The<br />

MBLC developed this direct grant<br />

program using federal funding to<br />

help libraries meet local community<br />

needs including financial and<br />

health literacy programs, STEM<br />

and STEAM projects, programs<br />

that help New Americans learn<br />

English and become citizens, programs<br />

that serve teen needs and<br />

projects that preserve valuable historical<br />

documents.<br />

“We are very pleased to be<br />

given the opportunity to work<br />

with the Plainville Public Library<br />

on behalf of our students,” said<br />

Jean George, Vocational Director<br />

for Tri-County Regional Vocational<br />

Technical High School in<br />

Franklin. “This has been a great<br />

opportunity for our students to<br />

New England<br />

collaborate together to see how<br />

their specific vocations are integrated<br />

to complete a project.<br />

Real-world application of skills<br />

is a valuable part of the careerfocused<br />

technical learning experience.”<br />

The play structure will be used<br />

by young children to promote social,<br />

intellectual, emotional and<br />

physical development. Under<br />

the supervision of licensed vocational<br />

teachers, the high school<br />

students will assist in implementing<br />

the project. Students in Carpentry<br />

will work on designing<br />

and building the structure, while<br />

students in Graphic Communications<br />

will create signs to identify<br />

various theme-centered play,<br />

and Early Education students<br />

will develop lesson plans to share<br />

with families.<br />

“Once we received the grant,<br />

I was very motivated in finding<br />

ways for the community to be<br />

involved in our work here at the<br />

Library,” said Laura Brillant-<br />

Giangrande, Children’s Librarian,<br />

Plainville Public Library.<br />

“Since Plainville is in the Tri-<br />

County district, I thought what<br />

a great opportunity it is for high<br />

school students to help us to accomplish<br />

our goals. It’s really a<br />

great learning opportunity for all<br />

ages.”<br />
