Wow our Fire and Fuels Camp was amazing! Thank you to all of the supporting agencies that made it happen (US Forest Service, Washington National Guard, US Fish and Wildlife, Dept of Natural Resources). Our students and instructors spent three days doing skills training for wildland firefighting. They worked hard and learned what it will take to be a wildland firefighter. We even had three of our alumni as mentors helping with the training.

Students in Freshman Science (Mrs. Burrato) practiced the scientific method with bubbles, last week. The activity helped students see how each step of the scientific method connects to real-world problem solving while making science fun and engaging.

Manufuacturing industry tours today! Students got to visit ALTEK which specializes in injection molding, milling, manufacturing, and robotics (tractors, sprayers, rovers,etc) while the second stop: Hydrafab Northwest (Northwest Trends) provides fabrication design services for industries ranging from food/beverage, biotech, aerospace, manufacturing, and alternative energy (among a few other things).
A fun fact is that one of our SVT alumuns works at NW Trends while also taking college courses, so this is a great example to our current students that they could be doing someing like this shortly after graduating high school at SVT!
Thank you again to these companies, as well as Greater Spokane Valley Chamber of Commerce for your partnership in these tours.

Our sports medicine students dove into movement lab today, exploring the power of core strength 💪🧠 Turns out, your core is a lot like a Coke can—when intact, it’s strong and stable, but once compromised… things collapse fast! 🥤 #CoreConcepts #SportsMed #StrongerTogether #CTE #GoodToTheCore

Bob Bertsch paid a visit today to see how things have grown at Tri-Tech! As a dedicated member of our Construction Trades Advisory Committee and a consistent supporter, Bob—along with his wife Karen and the Ashley Bertsch Group—helped make our growth possible. Their contracting firm once operated next door, and thanks to their partnership, Tri-Tech was able to purchase the property in 2011.
Since then, we’ve remodeled and expanded the original building ( Building B ) in 2018, and added Building C in 2023—together, these efforts have given us more than 20,000 new square feet of instructional space. This expansion is now home to our Pre-Vet Tech, Pre-Electrical, Law Enforcement, and Firefighting/EMS programs, serving 303 students in these pathways alone.
Bob shared that he and Karen always hoped the property would go to good use and truly make a difference in the community. We’re proud to honor that vision every day!
