Tuesday the Tuscola Technology Center hosted the annual Turnaround Student Luncheon. Each school in the county honors one senior each year with the Turnaround Student Award. Students are nominated by staff at each school and this year Kevin McNeil was named Kingston's recipient. Kevin has made great strides in his time here at Kingston and will be graduating with his class in a few weeks. He is also finishing his 2nd year as a TTC student in the Construction program after co-oping with a local construction company earlier this year. Congratulations to Kevin and his family for this honor!
It was a big day for the Kingston RC Club today. They competed against 30 other schools from around the state in a variety of racing and presentation events. The team brought home two trophies. One for "perfect pitch" a one minute verbal presentation and one for a five minute video production detailing the teams chemistry and work process. McKenzie Scott and Hunter Gavin teamed up for the pitch and James McCall created the content and edited the video presentation. Cardinal proud of all ten of these student/engineers!

On Tuesday, our 6th grade Cardinals traveled to SVSU to participate in their first Destination Imagination competition! These students have been brainstorming, collaborating, building, rebuilding, writing, editing, designing and so much more for the last 5 weeks to prepare to go to SVSU. Students got to choose between building the strongest weight bearing structure, writing a skit and performing a short skit, designing using only recyclable materials or a combination of each.
At SVSU, students toured the museum, participated in STEM challenges with students from Port Huron, Reese and Bad Axe, and got to eat lunch at the college cafeteria - definitely a highlight of the day! It was a great experience and we are thankful for the guidance from Mrs. Rikki Clarent from the Tuscola ISD. Looking forward to next year already!
