Students from six regional career and technical schools; including: Monroe Career & Technical Institute, Hazleton, Bethlehem, Schuylkill, Easton and CCTI, participated in the friendly competition designed to help students prepare for the State Skills USA Competition. Bill Marks from TPEI Engineering and Kyle Ahner from BTM Machine served as judges for the contest. In keeping with the friendly nature of the competition, all participants receive prizes that include gift cards and machining tools.
Jason Walck, a junior from Carbon Career & Technical Institute earned 1st place in the competition and Aaron Tallman, senior from Schuylkill Technology (and Williams Valley School District) earned 2nd place.
The Carpentry Program Of Study (POS) has tasks associated with interior finish. Each Carpentry student has an educational plan that articulates the secondary career and technical programs to postsecondary degree or diploma or certificate programs through the PDE's .SOAR program. The interior stair project is a level three project which not only involves stairs, but drywall, trim, wall finish, and wall framing. Currently there are nine students working on individual projects. Students build everything from construction grade lumber, boards, or plywood. The only piece that the student did not make is the handrail. The starting box newel, balusters, and stair treads were all student built. The shop is currently full of stair projects at various stages of finish. (October 2018)
