CRAFTSMAN WITH CHARACTER
Craftsman with Character is a course that students take for high school credit that provides an opportunity for students to spend time with local businesses in manufacturing and construction. Each week during the semester-long course, students will be shadowing with our local business partners. One day each week, all students will gather at Mid-States for mentoring by our team at Mid-States (following the Craftsman with Character curriculum).
Mid-States is proud to partner with Versatool and Die, Greenberg Casework, CCI, Spider Company, Nohr Pattern Inc., and Blackhawk Technical College as we support Turner High School career exploration and development.
