A first place and a third place medal was awarded to Lewis & Clark Career Center students from the City of St. Charles School District after the recent completion of the SkillsUSA Eastern Missouri District competition.
Overall, 167 Lewis & Clark students (36% of the student body) competed in 38 different district-level competitions, with 25 Lewis & Clark students earning a first place, gold-medal. St. Charles students earned one of those first-place, gold medals. Students competed in a variety of technical, hands-on, written, and oral competitions that related directly to their program of study at Lewis & Clark. Many of the medal winners will compete again against district winners from around the state at the SkillsUSA Missouri State Leadership and Skills Conference in Linn, Missouri from March 30-April 1.
“We are proud of our St. Charles County students as they once again turned in a great performance at the district level SkillsUSA competitions, particularly against schools twice the size of ours in St. Louis County.” said Dr. Andrew Stewart, director of the Lewis & Clark Career Center. “We are proud of the work ethic and perseverance the students showed. Twenty-five (25) first place medals from 38 competitions is a great reflection of all the work both our students and staff put in day in and day out every day.”
Students who place first or second are automatically eligible to compete at the state competitions. In some competitions, third place also qualifies for state. More than a dozen state competitors qualified to compete based on their performance on a nationally-normed industry assessment in their area along with a strong recommendation from their Lewis & Clark instructor. These “straight to state” competitors and all students who medaled in the district competition and those competing at the state competition are denoted in the table below.
SkillsUSA describes their organization as a “partnership of students, teachers and industry working together to ensure America has a skilled workforce. We provide educational programs, events and competitions that support career and technical education (CTE) in the nation’s classrooms.” Specific information about each competition area can be found at SkillsUSA.org.
