Dear Secondary School Families:
Happy Friday! This week, some of our sophomores, counselors, and I paid a visit to Questar III’s Robert Gibson Technical School in Troy. Students interested in participating in Career Tech next year selected two 45 minute orientation programs for the morning. Programs include cosmetology, HVAC, Auto Tech, Construction, Heavy Equipment, Criminal Justice, and Culinary Arts. Check out the website below for more information about Career Tech opportunities. Thank you to Principal Defazio and the staff at Robert Gibson Technical School for hosting this wonderful opportunity for our students.
