Alma High School senior Canyon Godfrey earned first place at the regional competition, advancing him to the state level. His expertise was put to the test through a series of challenges involving automotive systems diagnostics, working across multiple vehicle platforms and demonstrating industry standard repair techniques. He was also selected to be featured in a promotional video, highlighting his skill and professionalism!
Mount Pleasant High School junior Alyssa Tokarz and St. Louis Public Schools senior Aidan Sprague competed in the Criminal Justice division, where they were evaluated through realistic law enforcement scenarios. Their tasks included conducting traffic stops, demonstrating proper apprehension procedures and applying their knowledge of legal protocols in fast paced situations.
Firefighting students also faced demanding, hands on assessments that tested their emergency response skills, teamwork and understanding of fire science. Fulton Middle and High School junior Breanna Clewley delivered an exceptional performance, earning a third place finish in the state! What an impressive accomplishment that places her among Michigan’s top competitors!
🐾We are proud of the hard work that our students put into this competition! 🐾
We hope to see everyone at our Parent/Teacher Connection Night on Thursday, April 16th. 4:00 - 7:30pm
