The Healthcare Careers program has been hard at work preparing for their CNA certification exam next week. There is nothing like a little CNA trivia to get everyone ready for the big day!
It's been an interesting day here at GTC, but we'll still be happy to honor our students next week.
Update #3: Good news: Power has been restored. The bad news: Galena was still having power issues and is canceling for the rest of the day. We did not want to move forward with having the Award Ceremony w/o them present. Rescheduled for 12:45 Tues
Early Childhood Careers seniors had the opportunity to take a field trip to Scott Family Amazeum in Bentonville for a day of professional development. They focused on the benefits of play in early educational development.
Nine students from the EMT program passed their psychomotor skills exam on the first attempt in Blue Springs, Missouri. These students will continue the licensing process when they take the written NREMT examination to earn their Missouri EMT license.
Front row left to right: Emma Melton ( Branson), Emma Simms (Reeds Spring), Bri Hirschi (Reeds Spring), and Ella Carpenter (Reeds Spring).
Back row left to right: Mason Walters (Spokane), Gage Moore (Hollister), Laci Thompson (Galena), Wynston Crain (Reeds Spring), and Josh Brown (Branson).
Update #2. Power is still out, so we're having to push our morning Awards Ceremony to Tuesday. Hoping to have the afternoon ceremony as planned.
Update: We are holding out hope that power will be restored, with using 10:00 as a deadline for the morning Awards Ceremony. If power is not on by then, we will be forced to move the ceremony to Tuesday at 9:00.
Due to weather and power outages we may have to delay our Awards Ceremony. We will keep you posted.
We've got some Surplus Items up for bid. See more information on this link: https://www.rs-wolves.com/o/rssd/page/bidsrfps
Congratulations to Reeds Spring Senior Talan Gold and Galena Senior Tray Murphy who recently committed to continuing their education/training at Apex Welding Academy.
The construction program began construction on a new home at the beginning of the school year. The goal by the end of the year was to get the house "in the dry" (the point in the construction process where the rough exterior work has been completed: windows, doors, roofing shingles and a weather-resistant barrier have all been installed).
Mission accomplished; four weeks ahead of schedule! Great Job!
Culinary Arts students just completed their food truck wars competition. Students from other programs judged each truck on flavor, presentation, if the food matched the theme of the truck, and if they would be a returning customer.
Students in the Computer Technology program have been busy assembling computers with components purchased with funds from a DESE $10,000 grant the program recently received.
It was great seeing so many people at our 50th Anniversary Open House. Most of all, we were honored to have former Reeds Spring Superintendent of Schools, Omar Gibson, in attendance. His vision for Career and Technical Education over 50 years ago paved the way in preparing today's students for tomorrow through quality career and technical education.
