Winter Lakes reports: GED testing site, Team Oregon Build tiny‑home project and drone program
Summary
Winter Lakes staff reported new programs at the high school — an Aspire college‑prep program, TRIO services for first‑generation college students, approval as a Pearson GED testing site, and a CTE tiny‑home build funded by Team Oregon Build materials. Students described construction progress; a drone demonstration was also shown.
Tiffany Clapper described recent programs at Winter Lakes High School and invited board members to attend coming events during National College and Career Month. "We are now an approved GED testing site through the Pearson testing center," Clapper said, adding the site will serve students, staff and the community and will be the closest testing center on the Southern Oregon coast.
Clapper also highlighted CTE activity: Team Oregon Build donated more than $30,000 in materials for students to construct a tiny home that will be donated to a homeless individual when complete and then returned to the program for the next year. Student presenters reported progress on the build: "All the electrical has been run. Windows have been put in and trimmed out. Mud has been done and smooth, sanding," a student said during the update. Clapper thanked CTE staff and community partners and invited board members to visit the construction class.
The board also saw a short drone demonstration led by Mister Rasmussen, who described flight simulators, drone operation and safety roles for students. Board members and the superintendent complimented the student work and asked about inspections and community involvement for upcoming events.
