Friday!

The week just flew! Seniors left on the Senior Trip to Florida on Thursday morning, Students of the Month were recognized by the board last night at the JOC meeting, PSSA's are wrapping up for another year.

Seniors should be watching the mail for their Senior Dinner Invitation and Commencement Packet. Lots to read...the excitement of the last month of school is only beginning.

Next week, we celebrate National Teacher's Week. We have awesome teachers at Tech. Say "thanks" for all their hard work this year. It is appreciated!

Race Against Racism

The Tech team of runners was awesome this year in the Race Against Racism. Congrats to Dr. Wright, Ms. Ludwig, Ms. Pavlick, Mr. Kessler, Ms. Stiger, Ms. Hillier, Ms. Kemmery, and Ms. Schaeberle for supporting such a worthy cause. York Tech is dedicated to providing a safe environment for our students and staff, free of racism and bullying.

2010 Prom

Junior class advisors Jody Kessinger and Marie Malandro are breathing a sigh of relief this week. The Prom "Vegas Nights" was a wonderful event at the Yorktowne this past Saturday night. It is so great to see our kids have a great time and look spectacular. Davon Talley from EC is the 2010 Homecoming King, and Adrian McLane from AH is the Queen.

SKILLS USA results

Our students returned from last week's State SKILLS USA competition and I saw some medals being proudly displayed yesterday as they walked through the halls. Congrats to Derek Stiles who took a first place in the State Competition and will represent us well at the National Convention in June. Derek also won a $2500 scholarship to Penn College of Technology.

Hannah Mummert, Tiffany Leas, Brittany Keller, and Kelsea Scarborough placed second in the Health Knowledge Bowl. They each won a $1500 scholarship to Penn College of Technology. These young ladies are juniors so look out next year. I expect great things from all of the them!

Off to State Competitions

Two groups of students are off to state competitions today:
Skills USA students are headed to the Hershey/Lebanon area.
TSA students are headed to 7 Springs in western PA. We wish them the best of luck and know they will represent us well.
Got your tickets for Donkey Basketball game this weekend? There are an awful lot of staff willing to climb on those donkeys to support our kids!

Report Cards to be issued early!

Student report cards will be mailed out tomorrow AM instead of the scheduled April 12 date. It's time to take a look at the Cumulative GPA list for the Class of 2010 and see who is currently ranked in the top 10 of the senior class.
One of the top 10, Christina Nelson, has worked in my office all year as a cooperative education student. She is currently finishing up banners that were donated by the Class of 2009 for the mall area.
