Travis Hoskins has been selected as the 2024 Jefferson College/ATS AWS Most Outstanding Welder. Here are the kind words from his instructor: Congratulations, your hard work and dedication to learning the art of welder has earned you the 2024 Jefferson College / ATS program AWS Most Outstanding Welder of the Year! Hard work pays off, and you are being recognized for that and your genuine enthusiasm when interacting with your fellow classmates. It's one thing to be a good welder, your soft skills will take you places you never dreamed. Keep working hard on both and the sky's the limit to your future!

Come join us on Friday, April 12, for our second Pastries with Parents monthly meeting at the Fassen Building at 7:30 AM. This month's topic is MAP and EOC Testing. We will outline when the various tests will take place and what each building does to help our students prepare for testing. Also, topics include things that you can do at home to help your child be ready for test day. The Elementary will have its first week of MAP testing that week. The Middle School and the majority of the High School testing will begin the following week. Hope to see you there.
