Another item I didn't get posted from Wednesday of this past week. I took some sophomores back up to HCC center to look at their Precision Ag, Welding, construction, diesel tech, and other programs. Education may at times be assessed in the form of an A,B,orC but in the end it's about gaining knowledge and skills. A high school diploma provides all of us options!
