From innovative designs to impressive load-bearing performances, this hands-on project taught teamwork, structural analysis, and the importance of learning through failure.


Extremely proud of our CBTECH IBP student, Mario Gonzales, for placing 1st at the Regional SkillsUSA Washington competition. Mario will be competing at the State level later this year. Congratulations, Mario, very well deserved.

Let’s talk about ADVANCED MANUFACTURING!
Check out our video!
This is a great class to learn new skills or advance existing skills! It allows you to be out in the shop learning on tools and machines such as CNC machines, lathes, mills, and more! Students will tap into their creativity while learning engineering and manufacturing skills to bring different designs to life, creating a multitude of parts, tools, equipment, etc. that are used in many industries across the board.
This program offers students the chance to get a science and 3rd year math high school equivalency credit, 17 dual college credits at EvCC, and other various certs. There is also an apprenticeship opportunity!
If you are a current high school sophomore or junior that is interested, apply today at snoisletech.com before the class fills up for the 26-27 school year!

Today, Mr. Sauer’s and Mr. Thomsen’s Construction Pre-Apprenticeship students jumped in to help clear snow around the area behind our Skilled Trades and Transportaion shops, ensuring safe access to our shops and facilities.
This is what real-world learning looks like—teamwork, responsibility, and taking pride in doing the work that needs to be done. These students didn’t just learn about the construction trades today—they lived the expectations of the industry.
Great work by our Construction Pre-Apprentices and instructors! 👏





Precision moves. Clear communication. Zero panic.
First time spine boarding and our Sports Med class showed what real healthcare teamwork looks like 👏

Last week ended with a fabulous gingerbread man chase with our Early Childhood Education students and preschoolers. This year our wonderful Digital Arts and Filmmaking students and instructor filmed and edited to create this wonderful memory of a super fun activity. The Fruitland Building gave them miles of hallways to run through! #CTEskillsforreallife
