✨ Gratitude is the word of the week in Mr. Chase’s Welding Class!
Yesterday, Heritage Industries delivered a huge load of metal for our students to learn on, and today they went above and beyond by finding us stainless steel, aluminum, and square tube stock—materials that are hard to come by. 🙌
Right after unloading, we got another surprise—Great Dane called to offer pallets for our woodworking projects. Of course, we said YES!
A big THANK YOU to Heritage Industries and Great Dane for supporting our students. It’s great working with good people who want to make good things happen! 💙🛠️

This morning, the Industrial Technology Department had a wonderful visitor. Steve Sievers of Heritage Industries dropped off nearly 600 lbs. of steel for our student welders to learn on. Heritage Industry's donation saved the ITE Department over $500. Thank you!!
