My Students

I am very fortunate to teach some of the best students that any teacher could ask for. I get to teach these students a skill that will stick with them for the rest of their lives. Not only do these students learn a trade in my welding class, but they also get to put what they learn to use with hands-on projects.

My students are some of the hardest working students you will ever meet.

I love getting up and going to work every day, because I know I'm going into a class where the students are eager to learn and do.

My Project

These tools will help our students learn how to fabricate metal and use different types of drills and drill bits that could be used in the field of work they choose to go into. By getting these tools, it will help the students recognize and learn the proper name of each tool and how to use them properly.

When students are building different metal shop projects, the magnetic drill, numerical file, and power drill will come in handy to help put the finishing touches on each project.

Technology is constantly changing in the different trades career and I'm trying to keep my shop students up to date with the times.
