Skills USA

For those of you unaware of what a tricky tray is — it is a raffling of "baskets" that have various goodies in them. Participants buy tickets and place in corresponding bin for raffle to win said "baskets."

North 13th Street hosted the event at the Back to School Night on March 10th!

This fundraiser is for our members to participate in the SkillsUSA Champions at Work state competition in May. The students compete within their respective shops for recognition, bragging rights, prizes, and even scholarships!

Thank you very much for your support!

Shakespeare's Gobe

Ms. Gabriel's freshmen created Shakespeare's Globe Theatre after their study and presentation of "Romeo and Juliet." Their creations were unique, authentic, and all had a great time in the process! These freshmen are motivated and clever, to say the least.
