One project = lots of skills! Our Service and Facilities Industries class is in the final stages of their most recent project of building and finishing a 4x2 wall that includes a wired outlet and switch. The project requires everything from initial 2x4 construction through to the tape, bed, and texture of the sheetrock. #TrainingToSucceed

Today is Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Learn more about this national holiday at https://thekingcenter.org/ "Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." - Martin Luther King, Jr. (in a letter from Birmingham, Alabama jail, April 16, 1963.)


NOTICE: Pontotoc Tech will be closed for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day on Monday, January 20th. We will reopen on Tuesday, January 21st at normal time.
