Members of the JCHS Apprenticeship Building America student organization met with employee coordinator and mentor Malyssa Collins. Ms. Collins coached students on proper presentation, interview proficiency, and other necessary workforce skills.
ABA is a grant funded through the Department of Labor. Johnson Central is one of 6 schools in KY to receive this $200,000 plus grant. The primary goal of the grant is to help high school students obtain paid apprenticeships in order to earn industry certifications and foster postsecondary success.
As we celebrate National Apprenticeship Week, we were so pleased to have Ms. Collins travel from Louisville to meet with our kids!
Any high school student interested in working backstage for our upcoming production of Elf needs to see Ms. Warne either during 7th or after school on Friday, November 18th for an interview.

In honor of National Apprenticeship Week, we'd like to recognize our 12th grade Dataseam Apprentices: Ben Moore, Brandon Holbrook, and Nick Hardin.
These students are not only taking several dual credit and college level courses, they are also participating in a paid apprenticeship, earning an industry certification, and gaining valuable skills that will be transferrable to the workforce. These students are also part of the 34 member Apprenticeship Building America grant program (funded by the Department of Labor).
Another round of practice ACT testing is in the books!

Last week, the JCHS National Honor Society visited 3rd-5th grade classrooms at WR Castle Elementary. During their visit, they shared information about the importance of Veterans Day and helped the students write thank you letters to veterans.
Representative Bobby McCool and Johnson County Judge-Executive Mark McKenzie met with EagleX - a solar car racing team at Johnson Central High School. They heard from staff and students about their car, christened “Holler Pride,” and their intentions to race at Kentucky Speedway and Texas Motor Speedway. The event in Texas, the Solar Car Challenge (solarcarchallenge.org), is an engineering design competition that challenges students to design and fabricate an electric vehicle that is recharged with solar panels. This event is an endurance race where the winners will be the team with the most laps. At Johnson Central, EagleX, is combining the expertise and talents of teachers and students in several career pathways. For example, much of the car's design philosophy starts with engineering students who work with welding and construction technology students to have the car fabricated. During the process multimedia students document and promote the project while even culinary students thank our sponsors with events and meals. Teachers at Johnson Central feel that this large-scale project-based approach creates fidelity to learning skills that serve as an analog to real-world experience. The team, EagleX, aims to have the car under power and testing for competition by spring. More information can be found at eaglexsolar.com.
