BPSB High School Students Attend  AWS Summer Welding Class

Ten Beauregard Parish high school students earned the opportunity to participate in the AWS Summer Welding class. Students submitted a resume and application and were interviewed by a panel of industry experts before being selected for the program. Classes were held during the summer at Singer High School. Each student received a stipend through the Jump Start Summer Grant. Upon passing the welding test administered by an official AWS testing center, students earned a Carnegie Credit and AWS credentials. The Beauregard Parish school  system has received the Louisiana Department of Education Jump Start Summer Grant for the past seven summers to provide the AWS Welding course. BPSB has also provided high school students the opportunity to attend AWS Welding night classes during the fall and spring semesters for the past nine years.     Pictured are students and staff for the AWS 2024 summer course.
