This past weekend, eleven CTE students from Clay High School competed in the Skills USA competition, showcasing their skills in carpentry, electricity, welding, baking and pastry, wedding cake decorating, and teamworks. It was a refreshing sight seeing young people heading out to work in uniforms, completing complex projects and performance tests.

Overall, 7 CCHS students placed in the competition. A team of 4 students placed 3rd in the Teamworks competition. While 1 student took home 2nd place in Carpentry competition and a team of 2 claimed 2nd place in the Wedding Cake Decorating category.

For each one of these competitions, history was made as these were the first students from CCHS to place in any of these categories.
