Congratulations to Cade Muchlinski, a 2025 Hanford graduate and Tri-Tech Auto Systems and Pre-Electrical alumni who just completed his training at the Northwest Lineman College in Nampa, Id. These photos are from the graduation rodeo where they had to race up the poles, do their work and race down. Great job Cade and we are excited to see all the places this career takes you!
On Thursday, April 2, Medical Assisting students from NEWTech Prep visited Madison Elementary for the school’s annual STEAM Night. Students and families had the opportunity to explore career pathways in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math. Our NEWTech Prep Medical Assisting students shared demonstrations of diagnostic exams and personal protective equipment, helping introduce younger students to careers in the medical field. #connectwithnewtech
💬 Future student:

Last week, PCSC Criminal Justice students had an unforgettable day at the Sheriff’s Office, diving into the real world of law enforcement. From the moment they arrived, they were fully engaged getting an up-close look at specialized units like SWAT, meeting the incredible K9 teams, and exploring how forensic experts piece together evidence to solve crimes. They also learned about the day-to-day responsibilities of police operations, gaining insight into what it truly takes to keep a community safe.
Beyond the action and excitement, students discovered the importance of health and wellness in law enforcement, understanding how officers stay physically and mentally prepared for the demands of the job. The experience was both educational and inspiring, giving students a deeper appreciation for the many roles within criminal justice. Thank you PCSO for an amazing day!

Students use these resumes during mock interviews and when applying for employment.

Today Mr. Dustin Smith's 8th grade CTE classes welcomed Tri-Tech Skills Center Culinary Program.
Chef Luis Alcaraz and students Waylon English (KaHS) and James Freeman (Home School) presented the power of Tri Tech and the value of the experiences a student can have in their program. This included employability, creativity as well as presentations in real life scenarios.
