March 6, 2019. Danko Arlington was honored to host a group from Baltimore City schools to learn about careers in manufacturing. A group of select students joined CTE teachers for discussion and a plant tour.
The meeting was an ongoing effort by the company to engage local faculty and students directly. Visitors from Poly, Western, Mervo, Patterson, Carver, and the Reach Schools were able to see first-hand how their studies will be used on-the-job.
Needless to say, the group was amazed to see the company in-action, especially the 3-D printing and robotic machinery. The tour reinforced the need for high school graduates not going to college to be proficient in computers, problem solving, listening, and following directions. The company plans to continue pursuing our youth as well as making road trips to schools to spread the news: American manufacturing needs them!
