Congratulations to Brimley CTE student Andrew Bernier on being drafted into an apprentice program with Miron Construction! Andrew was also awarded a $2,000 scholarship in recognition of his hard work and dedication.

Andrew was the first student in the region to take part in the program. The local program was created by the Upper Peninsula Construction Council in collaboration with UP Michigan Works, EUPISD, and building trades unions, and is endorsed by both labor and industry partners. The program blends CTE classroom instruction with paid, hands-on experience on active construction job sites. As part of his work-based learning experience during his senior year, Andrew rotated through three different union contractors.

We are proud of your accomplishments and wish you continued success in your future career!

Eleventh and twelfth grade students from across the Eastern Upper Peninsula recently attended Career Day at Kewadin Casino in St. Ignace!

Students started the day by hearing short elevator pitches from more than 30 companies and organizations representing a wide variety of career fields. They then had the opportunity to visit booths, ask questions, and learn more about careers that match their interests and future goals.

Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs continue to provide students with opportunities to become career ready while exploring the many educational and career pathways available to them after graduation. Events like Career Day help students connect classroom learning with real-world careers and future possibilities.

Thank you to all of the businesses, organizations, and presenters who helped make this event a valuable experience for our students!

The CTE millage supports amazing opportunities for growing student talent, preparing the next generation of skilled workers, and strengthening our local economies by helping students build the skills needed for in-demand careers right here in the EUP.
