What is your favorite part of teaching your program?

Getting to see my students ideas come to life. Taking an idea from your mind and bringing it into the real word is what art and design is really about. That's what makes us the #1 print shop in Tonopah!

Mr. Deschenes consistently incorporates practical skills into his classroom instruction. His students actively participate in each stage of the design process, from the initial concept development to the application on apparel. He also enhances the learning experience by incorporating engaging elements, such as utilizing a skeleton as a distinctive model.

Mr. Welch's Construction and Carpentry students are demonstrating their practical skills by creating a range of items. This year, the students have produced corn-hole boards, Jenga sets, and benches. All of these items are available for purchase.

All CTE programs include Career & Technical Student Organizations (CTSOs), which are essential to their success. CTSOs provide students with valuable opportunities for networking, competitions, travel, and leadership development.

Our FCCLA officers attended a Leadership Camp in Williams, AZ at the end of September. This camp provides officers with the skills necessary to successfully run chapter meetings, engage members and showcase FCCLA to their community.
