Featuring Frank Cota
A huge thank you to Frank Cota for speaking with our Money & Business students!
With over 40 years in the industry, Frank gave students a no-nonsense look at entrepreneurship in the trades. From starting as a climber to owning his own business, he shared the importance of responsibility, consistency, and understanding that every decision matters when you’re the one in charge.
One of the biggest takeaways for students was Frank’s powerful reminder that while skills are important, your work ethic and follow-through matter even more. His experience and honesty gave students a valuable real-world perspective on leadership, accountability, and building a successful career.
Thank you for taking the time to invest in and inspire our students! 👏🌲

Another amazing program collaboration as our Early Childhood Education students and preschoolers visited our Pre-Physical Therapy program yesterday. This provided our Pre-Physical Therapy students an opportunity to work with pediatric patients and our preschoolers to participate in lots of fun activities that exercised their large and small motor skills. What a great day!

📐 Math in the Wild: The "Flight Triangle" ✈️
Ever wonder when you’ll use pre-calc in the real world? Check out this breakdown from Mrs. Warren's whiteboard!
Using Heron’s Formula, our students calculated the exact area of the "Flight Triangle" between WSU (Pullman), EWU (Cheney), and GU (Spokane). 🐱🦅🐶
The Cool Part? Normally, to find the area of a triangle, you need the "height." But in the real world (like flight paths), there is no vertical line drawn in the sky! ☁️
Heron’s Formula is a 2,000-year-old "math hack" that lets you find the area using only the distance between the three locations.
WSU to EWU: 56.41 miles
EWU to GU: 14.39 miles
GU to WSU: 65.51 miles
The Result: That triangular slice of Washington state is approximately 337 square miles! 🤯
Who knew ancient Greek math could map out our local universities so perfectly?
Awesome lesson, Mrs. Warren!!
