Greetings from the OVCTC PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions & Supports) COMMITTEE. April showers bring May flowers! We have a lot of flowers in our garden here at the Ohio Valley Career and Technical Center. We are recognizing some fantastic students for their great behavior and for being good role models in our school community. Every month our program directors recognize 4 students who stand out in their program as being PROfessional, PROficient and PROductive. So “Hats Off!” to our Positive Behavior Spotlight winners for the month of April!

It was a great learning experience while at the show exploring beef genetics, technology, and observing the many different breeds of cattle present. All members participated in the senior judging contest and our OVCTC Team 1 placed 3rd in the entire division. The team consisted of Ryan Shoemaker, Zander White, Wyatt Taylor, and Hayden Crum. Ryan Shoemaker was 3rd overall individually out of nearly 500 Senior participants. Congratulations to our teams on a job well done! Special thanks to Mrs. Amy Hoop, our ECE instructor, for saving the day helping us get students transported to and from the Expo! We appreciate her willingness to sacrifice time on our behalf.

The OVCTC Early Childhood Education seniors have the opportunity to participate in an early childhood education internship that places them in an elementary classroom all day. This placement provides them the opportunity to learn from wonderful teachers and gain a better understanding of the strategies and topics they’ve studied in the early childhood education program. Ronnie Slack is completing his internship at Peebles Elementary and works with the third grade teaching team of Mrs. Laura Applegate and Mrs. Tabitha Duffey. Last week Ronnie dressed up as the “bookworm” for students in his hallway at PES. His cooperating teachers said students were so excited and absolutely loved it.
