I have the privilege of representing Southbridge on the Southern Worcester County Regional School Committee. Like most school systems in the Commonwealth we are always looking for ways to reduce costs but to improve education.  The Bay Path Vocational School has a reputation for excellence in everything that she does and turning to sustainable energy is no exception.  The vision came from the superintendent David Papagni a few years back to harness the great wind power that we have on the hill in Charlton where the school is located.  It would seem we have a sustained wind about 300 days of the year.

After much research and planning approval has been given to start the process to install a wind turbine on the campus of the school.
