Say it again real loud for those in the back to hear!

Hadrian CEO Chris Power said it’s time to tell your kids to ditch the four-year degree and enter the trades.

Push all the buttons you want, turn all the k***s, work all the levers and have a great time doing it. Climb on the tractor, drive the skid steer, blow the horn on the fire truck and make something on a state of the art machine completely automated.

The NexTech Academy, a free ministry of the Kensington Woods church of Christ from 930-1230 will be having our inaugural Touch -A- Truck. You can tour our state of the art facility and see how easy it is to have fun making something complex in just a few minutes! If you're fast enough you'll win a Milwaukee drill set in our excavator competition!

Get you some popcorn, something to drink and enjoy your time with us all for free!

See you soon!

It's a real blessing when our industry sponsors come for a visit. We were blessed to have Robert Dearman here with us from JPM Hattiesburg, a critical component supplier for the aerospace industry. He came this week to hangout with us and to talk to our students about the importance of work ethic and employee and employer relationships when entering the workforce. We have a high standard here we hold and maintain. It was a great visit for both of us and I'm sure JPM will be dually satisfied with any of our students that are employed there.
