Department Spotlight – Technology Education
The Technology Department is in full swing for the spring. We will be breaking bridges, racing CO2 racecars and flying planes this spring. The new equipment and computers we received this fall are up and running with students having a great time and learning lots. All of the programs found in Tech Studies use industry-standard software and state-of-the-art equipment. What a great opportunity for a high school student! Come and see the new lab.

The student club, Technology Student Association, is gearing up for the state competition in April. Good luck to all of the students competing this spring.
