A great moment from ABC Trades Night!
Austin is now working as a laborer with Walker Construction, and Hayden is working as a laborer with Bouton Construction. Seeing students take the skills they developed at NEWTech and move directly into careers in the trades is exactly what career and technical education is all about.
They are gaining experience, building their careers, and creating opportunities for their future.
And in the middle is Chuck, one proud teacher watching his students take the next step.

A huge thank you to Peggy Wilson and Alli Paul from the Skagit County Search & Rescue K9 Unit, along with K9 Cricket, for visiting NCTA!
Students from Criminal Justice, Pre-Vet Tech, and Fire Science came together to learn about the important work Search & Rescue K9 teams do in our community. Peggy and Alli taught students about the extensive training required for both search dogs and their handlers, how dogs are able to track human odor, and how K9 teams are used during real search and rescue operations. They also showed students the specialized equipment used by K9 teams in the field and explained how it helps during searches.
Students then got to see those skills in action during live demonstrations in both our AM and PM sessions, with Cricket successfully tracking two of our students!
We are grateful to Peggy, Alli, and Cricket for taking the time to share their expertise and give our students such a memorable, hands-on learning experience.

Students from Columbia Basin Technical Skills Center (CBTECH) joined the tour as AWB visited Moses Lake Industries, a high-tech firm that helps make components that certainly are in the high-tech device in your pocket.
Founded in 1984, Moses Lake Industries employs 524 people in the United States – and nearly 500 of them work at Moses Lake. The company produces ultra high purity chemicals used in the manufacturing of computer chips.
“Our chemicals are in virtually every electronic device that keeps America, and the rest of the world for that matter, running smoothly with advanced technology,” the company said.
AWB visited Moses Lake and Spokane during the 8th day of the 10th annual Manufacturing Week bus tour. #MFGisWA

Another amazing Fire and Fuel camp was held September 24-27th at Camp Touchet in the Umatilla National Forest. Thank you to the US Forest Service, US Wildland Fire Service, Washington Dept of Natural Resources and the Washington National Guard for all of their support to organize an amazing wildland training opportunity for our 39 students. The students put their wildland training to good use and got a real look at what life as a wildland firefighter will be like. It is hard and dirty and rewarding! A shoutout to our more than 20 alumni who were part of the training staff. #CTEskillsforreallife #tritechskillscenter
