Always a pleasure to host high school students and explore the many career possibilities at PNSY! Thank you MHS Counseling Department for bringing these emerging community leaders for a visit.

Today, school counselors took a group of students to the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard! Students got special security clearance to learn more about insulation/HVAC shop, the Mold Loft, and Non-Destructive Testing unit. Students also got to have a personal conversation with the Shipyard Commander about his experience in military service and the many benefits of working at PNSY. Here are some fun facts we learned:

• Every submarine has an ice cream or snow cone machine on board 🍦
• PNSY has state-of-the-art 3D laser scanners that has accuracy up to 1 ten-thousandths of an inch! 📏
• Non-Destructive Testing workers have an x-ray machine that ensures each welded part is formed correctly 🩻
• The SMART scholarship program provides full tuition, annual stipends, and book/health allowances to students pursuing STEM degrees that commit to full-time employment with the Department of Defense after graduation! 🧑‍🎓

THANK YOU to for having us!
