Child Safety Fair & Open House on April 10 

The Moonlight Program in Practical Nursing (Post-Secondary) will host a Child Safety Fair and Open House on Thursday, April 10, at Blackstone Valley Regional Vocational Technical High School at 65 Pleasant Street in Upton. The nursing students and staff invite you to join them for a fun, informative evening on safety awareness, followed by the annual Practical Nursing Open House for adults interested in a life-changing career in healthcare.

The Child Safety Fair will run from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m. in the cafe annex. Nursing students will provide parents, children, and attending families with information and resources to help keep children safe in and outside the home. They will also offer engaging presentations and demonstrations on bicycles, car/booster seats, fire, backyard/playground, and water safety. The free event includes fun activities to engage children and help them learn about safety. Meet your Upton police/firefighter/EMTs, an interactive vehicle display, and more.

The Practical Nursing Open House will run from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. Nursing students will greet you and share more details about the part-time, 60-week evening program requirements, the admissions process, and how to enroll. Tour the practical nursing classrooms, speak with faculty and staff, observe the state-of-the-art equipment, and participate in a Q&A session.

The affordable program offers small class sizes and accepts in and out-of-district applicants. For more information about the program and to register for the Open House, visit
