For about five years, Parkside High School welding teacher Biazzio “Bill” Giradano has had his students making large steel structures for the Ocean City Reef Foundation to submerge on the vast network of artificial reefs emerging off the coast of Ocean City. The latest batch was deployed on the artificial reefs last week as part of a larger reef-building initiative undertaken by the foundation throughout April.
For much of the month, truckload after truckload of concrete pipe has been arriving at the staging area in West Ocean City, a vacant lot near the commercial harbor. The pipes are being loaded onto a huge 100-foot plus barge and hauled out to the artificial reef areas off the coast.

Giradono is one hell of a guy. He was turned some kids that wouldn't be nothing into superior welders. Giving them skills for the real world. You teachers complain kids aren't teachable but this man proves otherwise. He knows how to reach and teach his students. He also helps the adult community by giving lessons and tests as a certified instructor/ inspector. This guy is all about the community. Teacher of the year hands down!
It's Giordano.
Did you know who he was? Is this a spelling test? Troll! Quit being a grouch.
There needs to be more trade schools for teens.

I agree. They can get good jobs at Campbell soup, dresser wayne, bayliner, etc.
That school is a God send and has been for years. Children who are not college bound need something and this fills the void. ALSO... children who are unsure about college have gone and picked up a skill which has proven to make them more focused and capable of going to college. I should know...because my child blossomed and went on to college and come out with a double degree. All these teachers deserve a royal round of applause. Thank you ....all of you. !!!!
They just had a heating and ac student win the state competition
