Course Overview

There is a lot that will be covered within the courses that are offered here at BHS. We are currently offer both Agricultural Metal Tech courses as well as the Welding courses under the Manufacturing Cluster. The courses will cover many of the same skill sets, but with the new cluster we open many new doors as far as certifications and colleges. Some of these skills will be: safety, blueprinting, layout and fabrication, welding with multiple processes, power controls, and working knowledge of all the tools required within this job/ skill set. We will also have opportunities to compete at various levels such as FFA, Skills USA, Texas High School Welding Series, and scholarship/ prize events as well. I have the highest of hopes for this course and those that are in it. We hold our students to the highest of standards due to pride, yes, but we are in one of the most dangerous job types that there is. That said we have contracts that are in place to hold students to those standards and make sure that only those that are serious are in these classes. But that is enough of the serious stuff, so on a lighter note, there is truly no way to learn everything that there is in this career field. You can spend a lifetime learning new skills and that is what I love about this career, and I want these young men and women to share that joy and success. If there is anything at all you need of me, let me know and I will do whatever I need in my power to get the job done!
