Members of the Somerset County Sheriff’s Office visited the campus of Somerset County Vocational & Technical High School (SCVTHS) on the first day of classes to distribute backpacks and school supplies to students.
The donation of notebooks, pens, pencils, and other items – and a way to carry them - continues a tradition of support and outreach to the SCVTHS community by the Sheriff’s Department.

Though the Somerset County 4-H Fair was only open for one day due to weather concerns, a local student was still able to share a message of hope with attendees.
