Morrilton JR. High School

👉Our Exploration of Skilled Trades class welcomed Corey Lingle, a skilled electrician from Green Bay- Arkansas Kraft Paper Mill! ⚡ Corey demonstrated how to test voltage with a multimeter, shared real-world troubleshooting photos, and highlighted the importance of PPE and electrical safety. Students also learned about key system components like fuses and solenoid valves—a realistic look into the electrical trade! 🔌👷‍♂️

🎢Science in Action! Mr. Blocker’s class took learning to the next level today! Students designed and performed their own experiments to measure and time speed — testing hypotheses, collecting data, and discovering just how fast things can move when science is in motion! ⏱️⚡ Hands-on learning = real-world understanding!💡 #loveservecare #LearningByDoing

📢Russell and Regina Tindell recently visited our Exploration of Skilled Trades class to share insights from Russell’s career in construction and home improvement. He emphasized the value of education, certifications, and safety in the skilled trades, highlighting various roles such as plumbing, electrical work, HVAC, and masonry. 👷🏻‍♀️🧑‍🏭🧱 Students also learned about proper PPE and job safety practices. To make the session fun, Mr. Tindell handed out goody bags with tools and candy, plus door prizes like speed squares and safety glasses. The engaging presentation left students excited about careers in the skilled trades! Picture shown is with the Tindell's granddaughter, Sophia Lingle. #loveservecare💙
