Lincoln High School wins Career and Tech Education Award
Great piece in the Lincoln News Messenger about the award for CTE (“career and technical education”) garnered by Lincoln High School. Sierra College has a partnership with the school to develop some of those programs.
Another of the many programs Lincoln High received the award for is iDesign, where students use advanced computer numerically controlled machines in the manufacturing process.
“These are the exact machines they would use when they graduate and get jobs,” said iDesign teacher Scott Seacrist.
The program is partnered with Sierra College and this was the first school year the machines have been used.
“It’s cutting edge,” Seacrist said. “It adds a saleable skill and gives them knowledge of high-technology equipment.”
Seacrist added that he tries to make the projects fun so students can make clocks and three-dimensional mazes as projects while learning skills they can use in a job.
