Students from Eastern Hancock High School’s new EH Connect “school‑within‑a‑school” program visited Honda’s Indiana Auto Plant in Greensburg on Oct. 2, 2026, for Manufacturing Day activities. Honda associates showed how advanced manufacturing and tools such as 3D scanners/printers, virtual welding simulators and assembly‑line exercises support production of the Civic Hatchback and CR‑V. Freshmen Braxton Brown called the simulators “pretty cool,” and Krue Hinton said the visit was “eye‑opening.” Personnel from Honda’s Procurement and Supply Chain Center led a bag‑charm activity to introduce supply‑chain concepts, and Honda said about 1,500 students participated across its U.S. facilities.
