Regional Skills USA Competition

What do I feel most proud of in my teaching this week? Why?

I would have to admit I am proud to have been asked to chair the "Regional Skills USA Competition." I am also proud and relieved that most of the tasks required for the event are completed. I have increased the number of events in the competition from one to three. By increasing the number of competitions, a school could have three contestants instead of one. I have heard from several schools that the students were more comfortable with other classmates attending. A little work went into finding a sponsor that is going to augment our prize pool. I have also met with Atlanta Tech and arranged the competitions and tests for each event.

My students are very excited about the event. Their competitive spirit tells me they are confident about their skills. I will be proud when I see the results of this competition in my portfolio.
