Tenth-grade students from across Randolph County recently visited the Richard Petty Education Center at Randolph Community College to explore the diverse certificate, diploma, and associate degree opportunities offered in the Automotive Systems Technology program. The visit included a tour of the Randolph County School System’s bus garage. Wendy Anderson, the RCSS Transportation Director, facilitated engaging hands-on activities with her staff, allowing students to gain insights into various career paths within the automotive industry.

Isabella Tolar, Piper Blackmon, Caroline Becker, and Riley Clapp all advanced to states in the 200 medley relay. (Kyla Farmer was our amazing alternate) They placed 21 out of 24. 🎉🎉🎉 Caroline Becker also swam two individual events at States. Caroline placed 28 out of 32 in her 200 individual medley and placed 19 out of 32 in her 100 breaststroke AND dropped an amazing 7 seconds, for an incredible personal best!! Savannah Davis and Kendall Hagerman were selected to swim a relay along with Kyla Farmer and Isabella Tolar at regionals but unfortunately, regionals were canceled due to the weather. All seven of these girls have worked so hard and improved tremendously. We look forward to seeing all they accomplish next year.! Way to go, ladies!! GO COUGARS!
