Congratulations to our CTE December "Employees" of the Month!

These students were recognized by their instructors for their achievements and hard work in their respective Career and Technical concentrations. Each concentration runs a Simulated Workplace providing additional opportunities for learning, creating, and leadership. Many of these students will be attending either WV State FBLA or WV SkillsUSA Conferences next week. Let's wish them all the best!
