New Articulation Agreement Between SJVTC and UMFK

Priority #5 of the Valley Unified Education Service Center strategic plan, Rightsizing Education in the Upper St. John Valley 2017-2027, calls for reviewing and aligning programs at the St. John Valley Technology Center (SJVTC) in Frenchville based on local workforce demands.

Priority #6 of the plan calls for expanding early college/dual enrollment opportunities with the University of Maine at Fort Kent (UMFK) and Northern Maine Community College (NMCC).

The recent signing of an articulation agreement between the SJVTC Forest Resource Management Career and Technical Education program and the Forestry program at UMFK is one example of on-going progress in both these strategic priorities.

Valley Unified Regional School: More Than a New Building

Our plans and vision for the proposed Valley Unified Regional School entail far more than the construction of a new building.  They involve the design and structure of an educational facility like no school we remember from our own years as students.

For more information on our vision for a modern, comprehensive, integrated learning center, the curricular opportunities it will provide our young people, and how it can benefit the employers, businesses, industries, and communities of the Upper St. John Valley, click here or on the image below.  Just imagine the possibilities!
