Passaic County Technical Institute

Congratulations to our Athlete of the Month, Ariyonna Williams!
Ariyonna, a student in the PCTI School of Business, has stood out on PCTI’s Track team this season. Her favorite memory was earning second place in the high jump at the NJSIAA Meet of Champions with a jump of 5'6", an impressive accomplishment that reflects her hard work and talent.
Outside of track, Ariyonna enjoys eating, spending time with her little sisters, and relaxing. She plans to continue competing in track in college and hopes to study journalism so she can work in the news field on camera. She also gave a shoutout to her teammates for making practice enjoyable and to her coaches for helping her become more determined and better than ever.
Congratulations, Ariyonna!

Michael Coscia, PCTVS Class of 1974 and a graduate of our Electrical program, was recently featured by Career Tech NJ as a CTE Success Story. Now president of Oak Electric Company Incorporated, president of the Passaic County Technical-Vocational Schools Board of Education, and a founding member and treasurer of the PCTI Education Foundation, Mr. Coscia continues to make an impact both in his field and in our school community.

“PCTI prepared me for career success by teaching me all the basics of the electrical field,” Coscia said. “Instead of starting from scratch when I entered the workforce, I already had a strong foundation. Because the program was hands-on, we received real, practical training, which allowed us to hit the ground running once we started working in the field.”

We are proud to celebrate Mr. Coscia’s accomplishments as an alumnus and his continued commitment to the PCTVS community.
