Payette River Regional Technical Academy

Happy first week of summer break! ☀️🌴
We hope our PR2TA students are enjoying a well-deserved start to summer filled with rest, fun, and time to recharge.

To our families and the Emmett community, thank you for helping make this school year meaningful. Here’s to a safe, sunny, and joyful summer!

Congratulations to Hunter P. on completing this amazing mural for Domino’s! 🍕

Hunter did an excellent job—the mural is so clean, precise, and professional. He even had to freehand the drawing on the wall! For the lettering, he used the carbon copy technique to get it just right.

Hunter really enjoyed painting this mural, and his hard work paid off! Great job, Hunter! 🎨👏

One of our students, Cora, recently entered the PBS “Unaltered State” student contest, where students shared in their own words what it means to choose an unaltered state as a way to live.

We are excited to share that Cora earned First Place in her category!

We are so proud of her initiative, creativity, and willingness to use her voice to share such an important message.

Congratulations, Cora!
