The #Carpentry/SkillsUSA classes add new skills to their toolbelts daily by making pens, duck calls, charcuterie boards, counter tops, and deer grunt calls.
The students are building character through volunteering for the community and helping show other kids how to master a skill! For example, they've already learned a that making good decisions will help them in life even if they never use their carpentry skills.
These are kids that Broken Bow High School can be proud to call their own. Great job kids!

STICK MAPS AND MANIT DAY
Manit Day is a celebration of Marshallese customs and culture, observed on the last Friday in September.
Stick maps were ancient navigational tools once used by the Marshallese people to chart ocean swells and navigate between islands.
To honor this tradition, students in Mrs. Stiles’ class created their own stick maps to represent places they know well!
