Jon Groth discovered the value of vocational training primarily as an accident when he was a young man. He aspired to play football at Notre Dame, but nobody told him that likely wouldn’t happen, so when it didn’t, he needed a plan. After a stint in the military, he discovered his passion for teaching vocational skills in the Peace Corps. For the last 26 years, Porter County has benefited from that. Discover how Groth, now the Principal at Porter County Career & Technical Center, and Director of Porter County Career & Technical Education, motivates students and sets them up for a lifetime of success and career fulfillment.
