YSD MISSION, VISION, & SHARED VALUES
AND THE WINNER IS.......
PennDOT District 12 is pleased to announce the winners of this year’s Paint the Plow safety outreach contest.
This year, Yough Senior High School of Westmoreland County won the “Fan Favorite” award, determined by online voting. The fans decided their plow design best captured the spirit of this year’s theme “Don’t race. Allow some space.” An honorable mention went to Connellsville Area High School of Fayette County.
The “Judges’ Pick” award goes to Central Westmoreland CTC of Westmoreland County, selected by a panel of PennDOT representatives. Their design stood out for its creativity and connection to the winter safety message. An honorable mention in this category went to Bethlehem-Center High School of Washington County.
Congratulations to the winners and thank you to all the schools and students for their participation! THANK YOU TO ALL WHO VOTED!
