Swan Valley High School Industrial Arts & Technology

More sparks are flying as Murphy grinds his dice box today at our summer welding camp! Murphy will be entering 9th grade at Swan Valley High School this upcoming school year. At first, he really wasn't very excited about welding attending camp and said his "mom signed me up." But once he got going he is having a great time. We are excited that he can continue to pique his interest at Swan Valley High School as they were able to make upgrades to their industrial technology program recently through the SME PRIME Education Foundation grant. https://www.sisd.cc/o/saginaw-isd/article/562629 #CTEStrong #CTEWorks #summercamp2022 #weldinglife SME Education Foundation Saginaw Intermediate School District Swan Valley School District Swan Valley High School Industrial Arts & Technology

Come join us for our next registered apprenticeship information session taking place on October 12th at Victorious Believers Ministries. No registration is needed! A panel of representatives will provide you with information on what it takes to get into a registered skill trades apprenticeship whether you want to be a general laborer, electrician, ironworker, carpenter or one of the many other trades out there! We hope you can join us!

“There’s little evidence that college-for-all brings broad economic benefits, and it’s not the place of politicians to determine which career paths are good and need to be encouraged. Their efforts to push an ever larger number of young adults into college has done more harm than good. It’s time for government, especially state governments, to shift their focus to career readiness. We need to give high-school students more options, not fewer, to freely determine the career path that works for them.”
