Yesterday, HPTC hosted the Northwest Rookie Welding Contest, an event that was established 12 years ago to enhance the skills of competitors in the Northwest District towards both the district and State SkillsUSA contests. Every year, schools within the Northwest District are invited to bring two first-year welders per instructor to compete. This competition provides students with the opportunity to gain confidence, contest knowledge, receive prizes, enjoy a good meal, and meet other technology center students. Congratulations to Dakota Walker for placing fifth! Great work, Dakota!

There will be no football game this week against Timberlake. They have opted to not play due to injuries. Pink out and mini cheer will be November 2.
