February is CTE Month and we would like to highlight some of our students in Career Technical Education!
"I chose welding because it is a useful skill to have and to further my career in having my own welding shop. This class has given me a hands-on approach on what becoming a welder is like. Some things I like about the class is the ability to work with your hands and the class shows you how to improve from your mistakes."---Welding II, Colton Vanderstappen
