Happy Monday, OHP! Make it a great week!
NATIONAL QUALIFIERS! Congratulations to Sullivan Ashcraft (Construction Trades, Bellefontaine) for earning Gold in Carpentry and Allison Harlan (Graphic and Media Arts Academy, Triad) for earning Silver in Job Interview. We are so proud of you! They'll compete at the National SkillsUSA competition in Atlanta in June.
The cooler temps today couldn't stop our Welding and Fab students as they began the OHP signage installation! Ayden put up the template and then Blake drilled the pilot holes into the new siding. Finally, Grace hung the first letter mount and assisted in riveting the finished painted one onto it. Take a look as you drive by campus this week to see the progress!
Our Animal Science students are visiting the Columbus Zoo next week for a study trip and wanted a group shirt to wear. The great thing about going to school at a career center is that you can find instant connections to make things happen! Our Graphic and Media Arts Academy students designed and screen-printed the t-shirts and the Animal Science students tie-dyed them today.
Congratulations to our Spring Nail Art competition winners! Thank you to Alyssa Bush from Undertone Beauty Bar for judging the competition.
Happy Monday, OHP! Make it a great week!
Our Education Academy and Animal Science students teamed up to teach the Triad kindergarteners about animals amd animal careers this morning. We even had a surprise from the Easter bunny! Thanks for having us, Triad Elementary!
Welcome back, OHP! We hope you had a relaxing spring break.
Congratulations to our students named to the Third Quarter Superintendent's List and Honor Roll! https://www.ohiohipoint.com/news
Because everyone needs some puppies on their news feed. 🐶🐾 Our Animal Science students organized their first Groom-a-Thon today to pamper the dogs that live with OHP staff and Animal Science students. The Animal Science students bathed, brushed, trimmed, and loved on these very sweet customers.
One step closer to seeing "Ohio Hi-Point" on the side of the building from 540! The welding students made sure the CAD template designed by the Graphic and Media Arts program matched with the aluminum letters. The template will be used to locate the mounting points for the letters and OHP symbol on the front of the building.
Thank you to Karen Sorrels from the "What's Your E" campaign for coming in and talking to our students about the upcoming Logan County What's Your E Career Fair at Indian Lake High School. Karen gave the students interview tips to help them put their best foot forward when meeting potential employers.
We had an awesome morning welcoming Triad high school and middle school staff to campus as part of their professional development day. They enjoyed breakfast in the Sloan Kitchen provided by our Culinary Arts students, heard a brief presentation about OHP, and then had the opportunity to tour the building, speak to students, and learn more about career education. Thank you for coming and for being a great partner in education!
We continue to be grateful for partnerships that provide hands-on, real-world education for our students. Shoutout to Solomon's Garage in West Liberty for working with Automotive Academy senior Kaleb Pond through our Work-Based Learning Program. On Kaleb's first day on the job, he did an oil change and took a vehicle out for a test drive.
It's still a little chilly outside, but spring is coming! OHP/Marysville Greenhouse & Nursery Management students are potting and growing plants which will eventually be sold in the upcoming plant sale. New this year are succulents!
Students in our OHP/Triad Mechanical Principles class are helping create set pieces for Triad's spring play, "You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown." Right now, they're building Snoopy's dog house.
Mr. Hunt was teaching a Diesel student how to use a torch in lab this morning. Very cool!
