Mid-Maine Technical Center held its 31st annual National Technical Honor Society induction ceremony on May 14 in Waterville. Traditionally hosted by the Waterville Elks Club, the technical center staff coordinated an outdoor, drive-thru event attended by inductees and their families and observant of social distancing guidelines. The ceremony was streamed on Facebook for community members, according to a news release from Kimberly Waite at the center.

MMTC Director Peter Hallen, said “We haven’t seen each other or our students in person since March 13 so we were determined to make this even happen. These students deserved to be recognized for their outstanding accomplishments and to be able to do that on campus with our staff and their families here made for a special evening,” according to the release.

Twenty-eight students were recognized during the ceremony, including five members that were inducted in 2019. In order to be considered for induction, a student must have achieved honors or high honors for each grading period, demonstrated exceptional skill development and leadership, and had a positive impact on their school and community.
