The Walker Talker

Thank you to Congressman Andre Carson for taking time to out of his busy schedule to visit Walker Career Center and Warren Central High School this week. During his time at Walker Career Center he was able to visit with our Criminal Justice program to learn about all of the wonderful things happening within our program as well as visit with our Graphic Design program to learn about all of the Social Distancing signs that our printing team has been cranking out for our entire district.

Our Education Profession team is continuing to find new ways to utilize the technology that we have available and is currently taking advantage of some of the features within Canvas. Our EdPro students are busy out in classrooms throughout the district and traditionally have to wait in between observations to receive feedback about their instruction. This year, they are able to upload videos of themselves implementing their lesson plans via canvas studio which allows Mrs. Jordan to be able to watch them with the students and they can review and access their goals for the next lesson plans! We are fortunate to have such impressive students working with our Elementary schools throughout the district.

Congratulations to our Precision Machining program for being awarded a $5,000 grant from the Gene Haas Foundation. These grants allow WCC to support student scholarships, NIMS Credentials, and help create competitive opportunities for our Precision Machining students.

The students in Auto Collision and Repair are continuing to work on repairing the old Indy Car body to bring it back to life to be used as a show piece for the program.

Congratulations to Mr. Bupp on being named our October Respect and Character Award Winner. Mr. Bupp is our Auto Service Tech instructor and works with both our first and second year AST programs. Mr. Bupp was recognized due to his wonderful commitment to our Work Based Learning program as well as his outstanding ability to connect with our students. Mr. Bupp continues to build strong relationships with our local dealerships and we are fortunate to have him leading the way. In addition to being an amazing instructor with us, Mr. Bupp is also a proud Alumni of the Walker Career Center Auto Service Tech program.

This week our district participated in the Digital Citizenship campaign to help educate our students and school community on the importance of responsible use of technology. Thank you to our district Technology Team for doing a wonderful job organizing the activities.
