Students in JCHS Industrial Arts classes participated in Ranken Technical College's Manufacturing Day! They got to participate in multiple hands-on activities with instructors and current Ranken students. They asked some great questions and seemed excited about possibly attending Ranken in the near future.

Ranken invited our students to come back December 3rd for their Shadow a Tech Day where they will pair one of our students with a Ranken student for the day to attend classes and talk in more detail about their specific program.
