WE ARE
the other students express themselves in career paths
A
school away from school. Sounds nice right? Well, Warren Tech was the school for career and technical education. At Warren Tech you could learn many trades. The Warren Tech Central location has classes from Game Development to Digital Design, and Automotive Tech to Culinary Arts. “It’s a great experience and I have met people who share similar interests. My classmates are great because they’re a big inspiration. They help me figure out everything. I came here last year but because of COVID I didn’t get to do a lot but I got a lot more opportunities to do things this year,” senior Claire Branstorm said. Finding people with the same passion and interests as you was great. Being able to express what you were passionate about with other people and get ideas made learning fun. Warren Tech was the place where every kid could find a passion. You could go into digital design and help people make websites and posters. Warren Tech was a place where people could find their thing and learn more and do more for their future. Whether you wanted to earn professional credentials, get prepared for a job, or learn things that would help you through college, Warren Tech could help. Even if you wanted to go into something like music or video production Warren Tech allowed the chance to experience new careers and new things that you could do in the future.

I learned so much at WT, and being able to have people make my ideas is pretty cool.

ROLLING IN In the Automotive class you get to work with engines and tires. Junior Max Poppelreiter worked to put a tire together. “Getting all the angles and shapes was hard once we cut it all out and it kept falling apart,” Poppelreiter said. photo by k.fuller
PRECISON LEARNING
In the Precision Machining class, junior Grant Hoskinson mans a lathe which can perform cutting, sanding, knurling, and drilling. “I am learning something that I am interested in. I learned how to make my own tools and to use blueprints,” Hoskinson said. photo by k.fuller

I want to go into graphic design. I figured this would be a good start to join Warren Tech and learn as much as I could. Summer French, senior

3D PRINTING
Printing on a 3D level is how junior Jack Vandergriff works on his project. “I have a lot of fun. It’s not like it’s not a classroom. So you’ve gotten here and you’re actually working and motivated to come to school to do something fun, something you enjoy,” Vandergriff said.
THE GOLDEN TOUCH Quenching is when you put hot metal in water to bring it back to room temperature. This is exactly what junior Dustin Roe was doing. “I like the experience and the skills I have learned here. I can use these skills to get jobs in the future.” Roe said. photo by k.fuller

CUTTING-EDGE DESIGN Putting designs from a computer onto a sheet of metal, senior Joshua Lorenz watches his design get printed on the metal sheet. “The sheet metal was cut out using plasma light. Most the time it’s a self paced class so you can make whatever you want and it’s nice to relax,” Lorenz said. photo by k.fuller
