For the past several years, the Lancaster County Career and Technology Foundation (LCCTF) has invested in curriculum enhancements, equipment, and technology to support innovation and provide state-of-the-art equipment for the faculty of the Lancaster County Career and Technology Center (LCCTC). This year, LCCTF awarded more than $98,969 for several Dr. Michael K. Curley Teacher Innovation Grants for faculty at the LCCTC.

The LCCTF is able to award grants as a result of initiatives such as its Fly on the Run event, the Educational Improvement Tax Credit program and the ExtraGive. Grants were awarded to the Practical Nursing Program on the Health Sciences Campus for a Laerdal simulation infant, $33,000; the Advanced Health Careers and Intro to Health program in Mount Joy for a Sim Pad patient monitor and two blood pressure training arms, more than $7,169; the Dental Assistant program in Willow Street for a Cerec Primescan, $43,800; and the Veterinary Assistant program in Willow Street for a Vetscan Imagyst Bundle, Vetscan Sediment Analyzer, and Vetscan Urine Analyst, $15,000.
