TCC Students Compete Nationally at SkillsUSA
August 20th 2018 by Dee Loflin

Poplar Bluff Technical Career Center students proved this summer that they are competitive in their respective trades not only in Missouri, but on a national scale.
Eight top students recently vied in the National SkillsUSA Championship in Louisville, Ky., placing as high as in the top five of the country. In addition, outgoing senior Luke Cook earned a $1,000 scholarship from the mikeroweWORKS Foundation, based on an essay.
Hailey Garrett placed fifth in cosmetology, Nickalas Richards placed seventh in barbering, Jeramiah Gracia placed 14th in T-shirt design; Cook, Lane and Levi White, and Nick Loyd placed 20th in team works; and Lara Pierce placed 26th in esthetics, with Joselin Clark serving as her model. Building trades instructor Jody Cochran, SkillsUSA advisor, chaperoned the students during the conference.

Students Perform with MCDA 9th - 10th Grade Honors Choir
August 16th 2018 by Dee Loflin

On July 18th these Dexter students had the honor of performing with students from around the state in the Missouri Choral Directors Association 9th-10th grade Honors Choir. These students had to send in an audio submission to Missouri judges.
They were informed in May that they had been chosen to represent Dexter at Jefferson City, Mo along side of other students from the state. They met to practice throughout the summer. They came together on the 18th to put it all together.
"This was the best 9th-10th concert I have heard at Jefferson City. They were pushed out of their comfort zones and it made for a beautiful concert. They were given difficult music to learn and memorize. They represented us well with their voices and with their behavior," commented Jamie Sepulvado, Dexter School Choral Director.
