Talking shop at the Paducah Innovation Hub Friday morning were (from left) Paducah Independent School District Superintendent Donald Shively; U.S. Rep. James Comer; Chris Black, president of Ray Black and Son Construction; and Paducah Area Technical Center Principal Steve Ybarzabal, who will lead the Paducah Innovation Hub when it opens later this year.
U.S. Rep. James Comer came to Paducah on Friday to talk about workforce development and bringing skilled workers where their talents are needed within the state.
Comer took a tour of the Paducah Innovation Hub Friday morning. The facility will house several traditional technical center classes -- including carpentry, welding, automotive technology and electricity -- in addition to classes in computer-aided design, engineering, art and robotics. It also will house a gun range for Paducah Tilghman High School's Navy ROTC program and offices for the school district.
