Good evening. This past Thursday, the Jackson County Board of Education passed the creation of an Electrician Technician program for students at Ravenswood High and Ripley High that will be housed at the former Ravenswood Middle School. I encourage all Sophomores and Juniors interested in the newly created program to meet with their high school counselors as soon as possible to learn about the class requirements for the program. This is a wonderful opportunity for our students as we try to meet the needs of our community as new businesses enter our area. If you have any questions regarding this program, I encourage you to contact your son’s or daughter’s high school for more information. Thank you and have a wonderful evening.
