This summer the boys both did Tri Tech, the local trade focused high school. Jacob did auto systems and Jack participated in the culinary program. Jacob did a good job in his. The auto systems class was a basic introductory course to fixing cars. Jacob has a little experience in that, so he didn't have as much learning as he did in welding last year. But he did a good job taking in new information. His instructor highly encouraged him to come back his junior year to take the auto systems class during the school year, which offers more learning than the two-week course. And for Jacob to consider the diesel engines course, which is offered by invitation only after the auto systems class.
Jack did a great job in the culinary program. He was the youngest person in the class, being 13 at the beginning but he did an awesome job. He brought him a lot of what he cooked to share with us. Towards the end of the course the head chef asked Jack to run a culinary station as a student-instructor since one of the student-instructors had to leave early. I was so proud to hear that Jack was excelling so well in the course that the head chef asked him to do that. He also obtained his state food handlers permit. Jack wants to use the food handlers permit to volunteer at the church's drink cart on Sundays and Wednesdays, which we think is a great idea!
