A group of students from BHS traveled to JCCC to be a part of their competitive technology event. They spent the day on Jan. 14th competing in a variety of technology-related competitions.The group did well, tying with Spring Hill for fourth place in the 4A division.
Junior Kate Daffern placed fifth in Photography and a team consisiting of sophomores Cassidy Markley and Allison Waymire and Junior Miriam Conath placed third in the videography competition.
“We had to get footage and make a video about a different perspective,” Conath said. “We got to our room at ten and had to be done by three,” Waymire said.
The students had a great time with their events and were pleased with the way it turned out.
“It was really fun and an awesome experience,” Conath said.
The students enjoyed the experience and felt like that day was challenging and rewarding for them.
“It was fun, but it was a lot to do in six hours.” Waymire said.
Natalie Schmidt-Konkel, BHS Counselor, found out about the competition from Damon Feurborn, the head of the drafting department at JCCC. She felt that the competition was a good experience that benefited the students involved.
“They most benefited from being on a college campus to see what it’s like and from seeing what other schools are doing,” Schmidt-Konkel said.
