Student in Culinary Arts classes kicked off the Fall season with a little 'Crab' Apple celebration!
Students in Mr Shadix’s Ag mechanics classes have been working hard to get the livestock trailer road worthy! They learned simple tasks like how to properly check the air pressure in the tires - and then fill them to the proper PSI. They learned about trailer wiring, the proper tools and ways to diagnose issues with the wiring. They also replaced all the lights on the trailer, learned to read the fuse box diagram and find a blown fuse on the Ag truck! These lessons will stick with them for years to come! Next week the trailer will be sent off for a new tarp!
Congratulations to our latest Habit Heroes; Liam and Jonah! Liam was thinking win-win when he recognized a classmate did not have headphones, and he opted to share so they both got to complete the assignment and Jonah was being proactive helping clean up a mess that he noticed in the front office without being asked!
