Elementary Handbook Updates

Battle Creek Welding Students Are Looking for Projects! As a new school year gets underway, our Battle Creek welding students are ready to put their skills to work! We’re highlighting a few of the projects our students completed last year to give you an idea of the types of projects they can take on. Do you have a welding project, custom metal sign, or another metalworking idea you’ve been wanting to bring to life? Our students would love the opportunity to put their skills to work while gaining valuable, real-world experience. If you have a project in mind, please reach out to us! We’d love to hear your ideas and see if it’s a good fit for our students.

🎉 BIG NEWS! 🎉 Congratulations to Clare Schmidt on being selected as a Top 10 Finalist in the National FFA Agriscience Fair!
