This year our welding instructors have turned up the heat! They have provided real workplace simulations. Students have to weld while in harnesses and practice doing welds in uncomfortable/odd positions. Mr. Whiteside had to go slow and teach our students the correct and safe way to put them on for the first time!
As promised, here is all the info regarding the SkillsUSA Christmas Tree Fundraiser! Mr. Simpson even added a NEW DESIGN. Don't miss out! Here is the link to the PDF version: https://5il.co/286nj
Here are the finished results from the construction class step stool project! NICE WORK! #experiencethededication

It's about that time! Last year, we held this fundraiser to help our welding students travel to Hot Springs for the state competition. Because of your generosity and purchases, ALL of our welding students who went to competition were completely covered cost-wise. We are hoping for the same turnout this year! π€ More details to come soon!
Back from fall break and hitting the books! Mr. Willaby and our other instructors were ready to get back to work! We missed you, students π

Although it isn't Sunday, we just couldn't wait! In partnership with NWTI Secondary Career Center, we are starting a new segment where we highlight our incredibly talented Seniors. These posts will normally go up on Sundays at 2pm so be on the lookout. Our first Senior Sunday Spotlight is getting shined on BHS Senior, ZJ Carpenter. Her future is looking bright! #nwtisecondarycareercenter #seniorsunday
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Mr. Terry Whiteside! Mr. Simpson and their students surprised Terry with a birthday cake AND a new denim shirt. It's the little things in life that make Mr. Terry happy π #nwtisecondarycareercenter
This semester our construction class has 6 students! A few are already in the shop working and others are wrapping up their OSHA 10. Keep up the hard work! #experiencethededication
Our automotive classes are figuring out their t-shirt design for the year! President Evan held it up for the class as everyone took a vote. Comments like "well I'm not much of a Chevy man myself" and "I'll wear whatever. Those are pretty sick drawings" were getting yelled out. Ultimately, this design (front and back) got a green light from the majority β
Pea Ridge Student, Brady Snoderly, used the oxy-acetylene torch to cut pipe yesterday! And although it may look like he forgot his safety glasses (on the brim of his hat), he does in fact have another pair on! It is very important to our instructors that our students know the proper safety techniques now so that when they get out into the workforce it is second nature. Keep up the great work, Brady! #experiencethededication
