Congratulations to our Skilled Trades Competition team! The team of Cade Lensman, Layne Greer, Oscar Anderson, Morgan Vulgamore, Adelyn Guidera, and Lynzie Littlejohn competed today in Urbana at the Madison-Champaign County Educational Service Center and brought home some hardware to add to the trophy case, two student tool kits, and a 3-D printer sponsored by Parker Trutec. Top placers for GMS were Morgan Vulgamore in 1st and Adelyn Guidera in 3rd. Cade Lensman was our top placer for boys in 4th. When you added the best times of the team, combined, we also are fairly certain we would have won an overall team title as well. (That wasn’t a thing this year, but we feel confident anyway, and felt it was important to share!) Morgan Vulgamore was also the top competitor of the day, with the lowest overall time, completing the skilled trades course in just 1 minute 45 seconds, which is incredible.
The Skilled Trades Ninja Madness Competition is completed in collaboration with Ohio Hi-Point as well as the Champaign County Business & School Liaison. Champaign County schools are invited to each bring 6 students to participate. Students show proficiency in the following skills in the competition: Drill/driver, hammering, electrical circuit, use of welding gloves, nuts & bolts, measurement, and plumbing trap removal/ reassembly.

They made it to midnight! 6 hours on a Friday night after a full week of school. Rock-a-Thon 2026 is in the books and this group of just 43 students raised $6,805 towards future trips, with one student bringing in over $500 himself! Great event for all!

A staple of Rock-a-thon is a "no tech hour" where all the devices go away. Get out the games and socialize! And apparently the fad this year at rock-a-thon is nail care... Mr. Fuller even obliged.
