Brockton High School automotive shop students can learn to fix EVs

BROCKTON — The auto-shop department at Brockton High School is getting a clean-energy, battery-powered update.

As Massachusetts plans to move away from gas-powered cars over the next decade, Brockton High is bringing in tools and equipment to its automotive technology classrooms to educate students on how to work with electric vehicles.

In the basement of the BHS fine arts building lives a full-sized car repair shop, with two vehicle lifts and a handful of students who learn to service real automobiles.

“Electric vehicles are going to be to future,” said BHS senior and auto-tech student Enrique Cruz. “If you want to get into the industry, you’re going to have to learn it.”
