Writing great essays starts with writing great sentences! ✍️ Mrs. Johnson’s 9th graders had a fun little competition building sentences with verb phrases. 🎉 While chatting about their sentences, they realized some action verbs don’t always act like verbs. 🤔 The most common one today? The gerund — an -ing verb that actually works like a noun! 📝✨

Homecoming Week is just around the corner, and we’re kicking things off in style! Each day will have a fun theme, so start planning your outfits and show off your school spirit. 💙
Let's make this the most spirited Homecoming yet! 💥🔥

Guest Speaker Spotlight: Zachary Wells 🔨

Our Welding students recently welcomed Zachary Wells, a skilled welder and NDT-certified inspector, to share his expertise.

Mr. Wells provided students with an inside look at the career opportunities available in the welding industry, the day-to-day responsibilities of professionals in the field, and the vital role of safety in every aspect of the trade.

This experience gave students valuable, real-world knowledge to help guide their path toward future success in the industry.

Building Skills Beyond the Torch 🔧

Instructor Caitlin Wells and our SRTC dual enrollment welding students are taking responsibility for their new shop space by assisting with tool inventory, equipment relocation, and shop organization.

These activities are more than clean-up tasks—they’re important lessons in how to create and maintain a safe, efficient, and functional welding environment. Developing these habits early will serve them well as they prepare for future careers in the skilled trades.
