Our morning Culinary Arts crew brought their A-game for the annual Tri-Tech Pie Competition, and wow - what a tasty morning! We had 7 amazing pies on display, from sweet to savory, and every single one was a winner in our book.
After some tough (and delicious) judging, the 🥇 top pie of the morning went to… Chicken Pot Pie! 🐔🥧
Huge shoutout to all our morning students for their creativity and kitchen skills - you made it hard to pick just one winner!
Stay tuned - our afternoon group will be showing off their pie magic next! Can’t wait to see (and taste) what they come up with. 👩🍳👨🍳

🦷✨ Our PSSC Dental Assisting students have been hard at work providing free dental cleanings to staff and students — even our Assistant Principal got the full treatment! Proud of these future dental professionals for keeping smiles bright and healthy! 😁💙 #PSSC #DentalAssisting #ChampionsOfChoice
Our Dental Assisting students learned about the importance of proper ergonomics for injury prevention and career longevity. They all practiced stretching and strengthening exercises and then developed their own routines which they shared with classmates. This was a fantastic, hands-on opportunity to embed this important knowledge into their every day practice. #tritechskillscenter #cteskillsforlife

Check out this exciting short video features the life-changing experience that high school students had aboard Adventuress this year. This 9-day credit earning, Career & Technical Education (CTE) summer course is in partnership with Seattle Skills Center and Seattle Public Schools.
Students climb aboard for a 4-day consecutive day program where they get an introduction to the ship and then set sail for a 5-day overnight voyage where they can deepen their maritime skills and work alongside professional crew members.
The video was premiered at Sound Experience's 2025 annual benefit dinner & auction, Party for Adventuress - Now Boarding!

Student Highlight: Savanna is a second year student at NEWTech Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management and a senior @shadleparkhs
Savanna has distinguished herself in the techniques and processes of the kitchen as well as the leadership and management of PROvisions, our student run Cafe.
After her first year with us, she began an entry-level job with ManitoCountry Club. She has since been promoted to their front line of cooks; she also works the private events at the club and is willing and able to help their staff in other capacities as needed.
Savanna credits NEWTech with giving her the confidence, skills and connections necessary to grow and get a job in her preferred field.
But her big news this week is that Savanna has been accepted to the @escoffierschools in Austin Texas. One of the premier cooking schools in the US. Savanna will focus on the Pastry Arts.
Congratulations to Savanna on the next chapter of her professional culinary journey! #connectwithnewtech
