The SkillsUSA chapter at Sandy Creek High has been named a Model of Excellence for the second consecutive year, and is among the top 24 SkillsUSA chapters nationally.
As a Model of Excellence, the Sandy Creek chapter will receive a grant up to $4,000 from Lowe’s, a sponsor of the program, at the 2016 National Leadership and Skills Conference in Louisville, Kentucky, June 20-24.
The national Models of Excellence program promotes the intentional learning of personal, workplace and technical skills outlined in the SkillsUSA framework for student development. Specific characteristics defined within each skill area help ensure tangible benchmarks for student achievement and chapter programming. Achievement is measured by the effectiveness of student efforts in implementing essential workplace skills including personal responsibility, integrity, work ethic, and organization in chapter activities. The hands-on approach of this program actualizes the SkillsUSA mission of empowering members to become world-class workers, leaders and responsible American citizens.
