“It is impossible to make a big enough deal about the decisions these students announced on signing day. Our community and our country need passionate, skilled, and dedicated young professionals like the 56 CTA students who participated in this year’s signing day event,” stated CTA Principal Carrie Akins. “Each of these students completed a rigorous and challenging journey that has led to this point. I am so proud of each of them for their accomplishments.”
Nationwide, students signed a symbolic letter of intent to pursue careers across a variety of skilled trades, including construction fields, healthcare, information technology, culinary arts, cosmetology, the United States Military, and more at the SkillsUSA National Signing Day.
