CTE UPDATES

On Friday, May 9th Mrs. Johnston and Miss Bamford took CTE students to the PLTW Showcase at the New Balance Arena in Boston. Seniors were able to present their capstone projects to industry professionals, while underclassmen presented a variety of projects, including health and ecotourism. Seniors earned an award for their 4 year dedication to the program, while underclassmen enjoyed speaking with their peers and providing feedback on their work. Industry professionals were impressed by the students’ professionalism and the creativity behind their projects. It was a wonderful day and we are so grateful to the One8 Foundation for its support in Biomedical Science.

CTE Engineering/Manufacturing Freshmen visited Northern Essex Community College! They learned about the Engineering program, Early College options, toured the campus and heard from Sophie Rokosz, a NECC alum who now works as a Systems Engineer in the robotics industry. The highlight of the day was building a circuit and writing code to make an LED blink. Now they are excited for their Digital Electronics class next year! Special thanks to Doug Leaffer for coordinating this great experience for our students.
