Mrs. Loncon's Physical Conditioning students have been creating their own games, teaching them to the class, and then actually having the class play the game. Now until Winter break!
Here we have a group that came up with a very intricate game inspired by the video game Mario Party, but their version is called Loncon Party 🥳. Students learn teamwork, teaching/presenting, problem solving, project management, and creative concept development. This group even said how challenging it is to "teach" and got a feel for what Mrs.Loncon/our teachers do every day. These skills are definitely useful in all our other classes and in the future. Great job, Innovators! We love seeing what you create.

A few days ago, the CBTECH Criminal Justice class had the privilege of hosting Deputy U.S. Marshal McDowell, who shared insights about the U.S. Marshals Service and his experiences in the field. Thank you, Deputy Marshal McDowell, for taking the time to inspire and engage our students!
The 7th Annual Tip-A-Cop, held on Thursday, December 5th, at Rock Top Burgers and Brew, was a fantastic evening filled with great food, community spirit, and generosity.
CBTECH's Criminal Justice students stepped up to the plate, taking orders, seating customers, filling water glasses, and handling all the tasks of a professional waiter with incredible enthusiasm and skill. Their hard work, combined with the efforts of the Moses Lake Police Department and the Grant County Sheriff's Office - WA , made this event unforgettable.
Thanks to everyone who attended and tipped generously, we raised funds that will directly support Shop with a Cop 2024, bringing holiday cheer to families in need.
A heartfelt thank you to our community for making this event such a success! We couldn’t have done it without you. See you next year!

El 7° Evento Anual de Tip-A-Cop, celebrado el jueves 5 de diciembre en Rock Top Burgers and Brew, fue una noche fantástica llena de deliciosa comida, espíritu comunitario y generosidad.
Los estudiantes del programa de Justicia Criminal de CBTECH se destacaron, tomando pedidos, acomodando a los clientes en sus mesas, llenando vasos de agua y realizando todas las tareas de un mesero profesional con entusiasmo y habilidad increíbles. Su arduo trabajo, junto con los esfuerzos del Departamento de Policía de Moses Lake y la Oficina del Sheriff del Condado de Grant, hicieron de este evento algo inolvidable.
Gracias a todos los que asistieron y dieron generosamente sus propinas, recaudamos fondos que se destinarán directamente a apoyar el programa Shop with a Cop 2024, llevando alegría navideña a las familias que lo necesitan.
Un agradecimiento sincero a nuestra comunidad por hacer de este evento un gran éxito. ¡No podríamos haberlo logrado sin ustedes! ¡Nos vemos el próximo año!
West Sound Tech Fire Science class working on radio communication. The exercise had one team describing the picture and the other teams constructing the image based off of the details shared. Students love the challenge and had some good laughs at themselves when it didn't work out exactly right. #wstworks!
It's been a while since we've shared some photos of construction. It's coming along nicely. We have a second story and son of the roof on! #wstworks

It’s getting really festive over here at Tri-Tech🎄🎁 Our very own Mr. Randall Elf has been busy helping out in classrooms. He’s been cooking with Culinary, getting his teeth worked on in Dental Assisting, sitting for Preschool story time in Early Childhood Education, participating in group discussion and supervising in Video Game Design, as well as creating movie magic in Digital Arts & Filmmaking. We also have two awesome trees… one tree made by our Firefighting students and one was a group effort featuring “ornaments” made from things our students would use in their program or industry. Check back next week to see what mischief the Mr. Randall Elf gets up to!

Meet Paul, a graduate from @nchs_wolfpack and NEWTech and now pursuing his DTA at SFCC, and Kaidyn, a @uhs.spirit and NEWTech graduate currently attending @whitworthuniversity . Joining their ranks, though not pictured, is Cassidy, a graduate from LC.
These three incredible individuals hold a special place in NEWTech history as the first-ever licensed graduates of our Pharmacy Technician program in 2024!
Paul, Kaidyn, and Cassidy achieved something remarkable—they graduated high school as nationally certified pharmacy technicians through the PTCB and obtained their Washington State licenses from the DOH. While still students, they were hired at @providenceeasternwa to complete their internship, and their dedication earned them permanent positions at Sacred Heart once their licenses were approved.
Today, they are thriving in their roles, impressing seasoned technicians with their skills, work ethic, and reliability. Their journey is a testament to the opportunities available through hard work and the NEWTech Pharmacy Technician program.
Congratulations, Paul, Kaidyn and Cassidy! Your success is an inspiration, and we can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll accomplish in the future.
