SCCC's Automotive Collision Class Receives Safety Glasses Donation
Students in Ron Longnecker's Automotive Collision class at the South Central Career Center were chosen to receive a donation of safety glasses from the SAS Safety Corporation. These donated safety glasses were distributed to the SCCC class as part of a grant called the 'Ultimate Collision Education Makeover' from the Collision Repair Education Foundation (formerly the I-CAR Education Foundation). Across the country, students will be safer in their collision programs through SAS Safety Corp.'s donation of over 6,000 pairs of their "Killer Bee" safety glasses.
For additional information about SAS Safety Corp. visit www.sassafety.com.
