🏆 Exciting news from Somerset County Technical High School! Our talented masonry students showcased their skills in a friendly competition with peers from Parkside Career and Technology Center in Salisbury. This was an excellent practice opportunity as our students prepare for future SkillsUSA competitions later this school year. Their work was evaluated and scored, and three winners were recognized. We're incredibly proud of Blair N., Senior from Washington High School who won 1st place, and Amah-Ru A., Junior from Crisfield High School who placed 3rd. Congratulations to the student from Parkside earning 2nd place (our apologies for not having permission to share your information!!), and all who participated today! #SCPSProud #SkillsUSA #CareerAndTechEducation #BuildingTheFuture
