On Thursday April 24, 2008, outstanding young women of Prince Tech were honored with a breakfast and awards ceremony. The event was planned to acknowledge the contributions and positive leadership skills these young women have made to their school and community.

Bridget Heston, Assistant Principal, served as Mistress of Ceremonies and introduced the guest speaker, Ms. Lucy Goicoechea-Hernandez from the Governor's Latino and Puerto Rican Affairs Commission.  Other invited guests included Superintendent of the Connecticut State Technical Schools, Dr. Abigail Hughes, State Representative Minnie Gonzalez, Ms. Ivette Rivera Dreyer, Financial Aid Director of Manchester Community College, and William Chaffin, Principal. 

Ms. Goicoechea-Hernandez arranged for Governor's Proclamations for each of the 2007 and 2008 honorees and Representative Gonzalez presented each girl with a signed Legislative Citation. 

The speakers expressed to our students and to staff their interest in mentoring students with their educational and career goals.
