Macon County Schools
Career Tech and Trenholm State Tech
WRITTEN BY Melvin Lowe ON September 17, 2013
After months of planning and development the Career and Technical Education Department in Macon County Public Schools has made it happen. Students are being offered Trenholm State Technical College Classes in Macon County. Students are transported from BTW/NHS to the CTC and then home. Something you can't refuse.
 
Students are taking classes in Business Education, Cosmetology, and Automotive Services Technology. Mrs. Cynthia Brown (shown in photo) a Macon County Public School Graduate, College Graduate, Teacher, and Adjunct Teacher for Trenholm State provides quality instruction to students every Monday afternoon from 4:30p.m. - 7:30p.m. Students participate in a mandatory study hall from 3:30p.m. - 4:30p.m. each day before their class. Mrs. Marilyn Renfore and Mr. Christopher Clark also teach during the afternoon/evenings.
 
Other classes are taught; Tuesday (Spreadsheet Applications) Wednesday (Automotive Services Technology), and Thursday (Beginning Typing). All courses run from August 2013 - December 2013. If you would like for your son/daughter to participate in our second cycle beginning January 2014, please call the Career Tech Center for program information 334.724.1236 or e-mail Dr. Lowe - Program Administrator: lowema@maconk12.org
 
Our students are taking advantage of many opportunities. They are increasing their GPAs, developing necessary job skills, and making career and education decisions for the future. Please encourage any student to take advantage of this program. All services are grant sponsored; therefore space is limited. Help us help you plan for future successes.
