Everyone’s a winner

Good program — that would be the state’s “Grow Your Own Educators Grant Program,” which sent more than $800,000 to Worcester County Public Schools graduates pursuing degrees in education at Salisbury University.

Nineteen former county school students now at SU were awarded $42,905 each during a ceremony on Nov. 5 to help cover their tuition.

In exchange, the students will train in Worcester and return to teach here. That’s an outstanding arrangement for everyone.

Congratulations to the grant recipients, the school system, and the Department of Education. In this instance, everyone really is a winner.
