Avaiya has a very positive attitude all the time. She does not make any enemies of her peers. She is well-liked by all. She has the most integrity of any student I have had in the past. She is a hard worker and is very responsible. (She even gets her work before a field trip and gets it done and turned in the next day!)

Mark is a wonderful student to have in class. He is helpful to others and tackles any project that comes through our doors. Mark is also a master of multitasking.

Mason is a leader in the classroom and in the lab! His welding ability is top of the class as well as his welding knowledge. Mason is very passionate about welding! Always asking questions and looking for answers! Helping everyone along the way!  Mason is a great representative of Manchester, PLCC, and ambassador to the welding community!

Anna is one of the most thoughtful students I’ve had. She goes out of her way to be helpful to her classmates & me. The list is long of all the kind, helpful things Anna has done to name a few… 

brought in extra gifts for the gift exchange in case someone didn’t have the $ to purchase a gift & participate; made a class song google form so all classmates could have the chance to request songs & manages to play them while keeping it school appropriate for us; comes down from focus period when her work is done to earn hours but always checks salon jobs & does what needs to be done without being asked & seems happy to do it; if a student is having a rough time she befriends them & checks in on them

Since we began creating the Pharmacy Lab, Jessica has gone above and beyond in organizing hundreds of empty medicine bottles for our practice labs. Jessica is ECHS, and she is free every morning before reporting to PLCC for lab. Jessica came to school countless days, a few hours early, just to organize the lab. She “trained” a couple of other students to assist her; however, she did all the heavy lifting! 

I am so proud of the video prepared about the pharmacy for our website. Jessica represented herself and our school with dignity and heartfelt enthusiasm. She didn’t miss a beat during her interview!

Jess is just an amazing student and young lady. She is always prepared, works hard, and has earned excellent grades. Jessica is trustworthy, responsible and ALWAYS kind. She is always the first to volunteer to help others, including me! She never refuses any task that will help someone else.

As her instructor, I genuinely look forward to having Jessica in class every day. She walks through the door with a smile, and leaves with a smile. Her positive, kind energy is felt by everyone!

Steven demonstrates on a daily basis a fantastic example of professional courtesy and kindness. He works well with other students and leads with his humble approach to collaboration and cooperation. Steven is always eager to learn more and go deeper with the processes he is mastering in class and the HVAC lab. He always goes above and beyond by volunteering and taking on roles with tool management and lab cleanup management, exceeding the expectations of what defines a model student, citizen, and employee. I am honored to nominate Steven Ford from the HVAC program as Student of the Month.

Lilly has been very participative in the COS program from the very beginning. She shows true passion for the industry and has been working so hard not only in class but at home with her required CIMA web hours.

I would like to nominate Drew Hippich as the School-to-Work placement student of the month.  Drew has been the perfect example of a successful student in the School-to-Work placement pre-apprenticeship program.  Drew exhibits a strong work ethic, is reliable & professional, and shows great initiative, respect, and integrity.  Drew, keep up the great work with your commitment to professional and academic success this year!

I observe Lucas daily.  He is consistently courteous to staff.  Another impressive attribute is the manner in which he takes the time to often walk a Job Training student from the bus to the building.  He engages the student in conversation and patiently listens to the student’s answers.  As he walks he is genuine in his natural approach to being a quiet example of a student with maturity and character. 

Kamara Always turns in her homework early.  She always has a positive attitude and a “can do” mentality.  She performs well during hands-on practicals and encourages/coaches fellow classmates that sometimes struggle.

Mason consistently works above my expectations in class. Mason is attentive and inquisitive about the HVAC industry. If every student was like Mason my job would be too easy.  

Savannah is a strong student who we are lucky to have at PLCC.  She is the kind of person who speaks up when she sees something that doesn’t feel right and advocates for people who may not know how to do so for themselves.  If she chooses to continue in the medical field post graduation, she will make a wonderful patient advocate.

Caden has continued to grow in his trade skills since the start of school.  He asks great questions and in always on task.  I can pair him up with anyone, and he’ll improve the other student’s understanding of the material.  He would win the Jason Bourne Award as my silent assassin….he quietly attacks and eliminates all problems.

I did not have the opportunity to work with Carter much before October, 2021.  I was lucky enough to be needed to help with instruction for the Visual Design and Imaging program when their instructor Mr. Raymond was indisposed.  I turned to the senior VDI students who have much more design experience (than the junior VDI students or me) to find out what they thought the junior should be working on at this time of year.  A few senior students immediately stood out from the rest offering to help with projects for the juniors and Carter was the first and most professional of the small group.

Over the next few weeks, Carter showed what an amazing designer and content creator he truly is by organizing instruction for the junior VDI lab, modifying his schedule so he could come in and personally instruct the juniors on new projects, and helped created a schedule with content, group leaders, and props/staging for PLCC Sophomore Visits.  Effectively, the small group led by Carter created a student-led marketing promotion to encourage new students to pick VDI for next school year.   Carter volunteered to come in during his personal time to provide educated content regarding technology and software used in VDI for new students and answer any questions the visitors had.  Mr. Rich showed an incredibly animated and entertaining side of his personality that is not often seen at school because he wanted to do his best work in order to make Mr. Raymond proud.  Carter also went out of his way to represent the Visual Design & Imaging program professionally by volunteering his time for the Open House evening.  As the only student to represent their program during the open house, he introduced himself to every set of visitors, chatted about the software & technical program, and answered parent questions to the best of his ability.  Mr. Rich showed concern for all interested students and parents and tried to help everyone he could that evening.  

Carter and his small group were so incredibly successful at their program marketing that the VDI program was completely filled with new students within two weeks of the recruiting event.  

Carter Rich makes design,content creation/management and marketing look easy!

Kyle is a leader in the Law and Criminal Justice Program. Kyle works several jobs and participates in the ride along programs with the New Franklin Police Department and Springfield Township Police. Kyle is a member of Jackson Township Police Departments Explorer Program. Kyle is eager to learn as much as possible about the criminal justice field.

It is my pleasure to be a part of her journey!

Natalie is a positive student who demonstrates strong character.  She treats people well and speaks up when she sees others being treated poorly.  We are lucky to have Natalie at PLCC.
