The existing building had been a laundry but with the imagination of the Rio Grande City Consolidated Independent School District it was to take on new life. Human beings. rather than clothes. were to be renewed. Their untutored skills and abilities were to be developed. Two hundred and fifty unemployed and underemployed. many of them migrants. were to be trained to fill jobs in the aerospace sheet metal industry where skilled workers are vitally needed. The funds for the training of these seasonally employed were to come from the Manpower Development and Training Act--a jointly administered program in which the Economic Development Administration. the Department of Labor and the Department of Health. Education. and Welfare cooperate.
