SkillsUSA is back!

SkillsUSA has made a huge comeback at PCHS and PCMS. In fact, this may be the first time that PCMS has had a SkillsUSA team! SkillsUSA is a partnership of students, teachers, and industry working together to ensure America has a skilled workforce by supporting students and teachers in a Career and Technical Education curriculum (CTE).
 
The students and advisors at Pamlico County Schools have been working diligently to learn skills, teach standards, and create an atmosphere of excitement for this fantastic program.
Last Friday, 21 members of the PCMS and PCHS SkillsUSA teams traveled to Winterville to attend and compete in the SkillsUSA Regional Rally.
