Skills USA competition and Career Expo
I'm going to the Skills USA competition and Career Expo at Columbus Tech today. Fancy this, in order to draw more interest into our programs (CTAE), our guidance department has decided to choose the students themselves that will go with us to tour the competition. We all have many students who have great talent but for some reason are not interested enough in Skills USA to become a member. They've never been to a competition. We thought if they saw one they just might get interested. Well, the guidance department isn't going to let us choose the students we feel would get the most out of it at this point and I just don't get it. With all of the encouragement that they have already recieved about thier great skills a visit to a Skills competition might be the one last boost they need to get involved don't you think? Duh!
I'm as mystified as you are. This seems to have been Administration From &*%# Week.
ReplyDeleteMr. Vinsant will have to check my spelling on that last word.

ReplyDeleteYes, Mr. Vinsant please check that word. I don't normally use profanity but the "F" word keeps popping up in my mind over crazy things like this! Errrrr....
