60 students from the Clark County Skills Center will vie for state championships in the SkillsUSA statewide competition next month in Yakima after finishing in the top three in the recent southwest Washington regionals.
Among the twelve regional champions were Mountain View senior Stephen Dirocco and Union junior Valeriy Silanov in Automotive Technology; Justin Roub, a Columbia River junior, and Viktor Slivkov, a Heritage junior in Construction Technology; Evergreen senior Aaron Bruckner, Parkrose senior Sterling Arkills, Camas junior Benjamin Rodriguez and Mountain View senior Steven Nance in Electro-Digital Technologies; and seniors Zack Flatner of Hockinson and Andrea Bunica of Parkrose in Pre-Engineering and Design.
The regional champions in Criminal Justice -- Union juniors Isabella Cruz and Darya Koloyarskaya as well as Evergreen juniors Tyler Rossmiller and Timothy Tite – will not compete in Yakima because there is no statewide competition for Criminal Justice.
The statewide competition runs April 9th through April 11th at the Yakima Convention Center. For more information, please call Skills Center Director Dennis Kampe at (360) 604-1050.
Opened in 1983, the Clark County Skills Center is owned and operated by ten southwest Washington school districts providing technical and professional training programs that prepare Clark County high school and college students for the workforce.
