These accomplishments are the result of months of hard work, creativity, problem-solving, and dedication to growing their STEM skills.
The Technology Student Association is a national organization for students interested in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Through competitions and leadership opportunities, TSA gives students the chance to apply what they’re learning in the classroom to real-world challenges — and to showcase their talents along the way.
North Hills’ TSA chapter is sponsored by Technology Education teacher Reuben Clark, who supports and guides students as they sharpen their technical skills and explore future career pathways.
Congratulations to these outstanding students on a successful regional competition. We look forward to cheering them on as they represent North Hills at the state level this spring.
