PEMBROKE PINES An unused multimillion-dollar bus compound, long a symbol of government waste, will be transformed into a vocational school next year, providing adult job training and freeing up money to hire teachers, Broward Schools Superintendent Robert Runcie announced Tuesday.
Runcie said the move is part of a larger effort to reduce waste and move money into schools. It also will allow adults to earn a general education diploma, learn English or get critical job skills in such fields as commercial driving, automotive services and truck and bus maintenance, he said.
“There’s lots of demand for these types of programs,” he said.
