Goshen High School’s technology and engineering education program, led by Joe Fedor and Dillon Johnson, was honored for excellence by the International Technology and Engineering Educators Association (ITEEA) at its 85th Annual Conference held April 12-15 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Goshen’s program is one of 28 from across the country at the elementary, middle, and high school levels that received ITEEA’s Program Excellence Award.

Sponsored by ITEEA and Paxton/Patterson, the Program Excellence Award is one of the highest honors given to technology and engineering education programs and is presented in recognition of their outstanding contributions to the profession and students.

The Program Excellence Award program is designed to recognize superior K-12 technology and engineering education programs from around the world. These award-winning programs serve as a standard for comparison and models for the development of other programs. Therefore, it is essential that each program selected and recognized reflects contemporary technology engineering education.

Awardees serve as models for their colleagues, inspiration to their communities, and leaders in their region, province, or state as proponents of advancing technological literacy for all.
