    Day 1 Semester 2 - 2025

    Today we are feeling the ripple of the extended winter break. The added week off is a game changer. This shows me a variety of things about my students.

Two of the projects are the Chevy truck suspension rebuild and the Chevy Equinox transmission replacement.

    Beginning of second semester

    Final push for our first group of seniors. A lot going on trying to get the program accredited with ASE, industry certifications, and shop work. Electrathon has been rough so far this year but hopefully we will finish strong.

    What would an internship look like, with a high school senior, for your business? Would you embrace it? Would your insurance allow you to even try?
