Biddeford honors SkillsUSA competitors after state medals
Summary
Instructors from the regional Center of Technology and computer-technology teacher Matt Lanie presented and introduced students who returned from SkillsUSA with multiple medals, including a gold in electrical code knowledge and three medals in computer technology.
The school committee recognized vocational students who competed in the SkillsUSA statewide competition. A vocational instructor said SkillsUSA winners may go on to national competition and described the scale of competition; he singled out Robert Stetson for a gold in the electrical code knowledge contest.
Computer-technology instructor Matt Lanie introduced his students and said Biddeford sent three students to the contest and returned with three medals. "We sent 3 students, and we brought back 3 medals in computer technology," Lanie said. The committee invited the students forward for a photograph and offered public congratulations.
Committee members praised the students and instructors and noted the recognition as evidence of strong faculty and career-technical programs in the district. The committee did not take action during the recognition.
