Students at two Ventura high schools could be learning to repair electric cars and bicycles as early as fall 2025 with the help of a state grant. Ventura Unified School District was awarded a $650,000 K-12 Strong Workforce Program grant to be used at Buena and Ventura high schools to purchase new equipment, train teachers and make infrastructure upgrades for its technical training classes called the Automotive Career Pathway, according to a district news release.
