Mrs. Booze’s class teamed up with Mrs. Ullom’s Dual Enrollment Speech and Debate class for a dramatic reading activity. Junior, Payton Gilbert, read The Frustrating Book by Mo Willems to her second grade students. It was a book about emotions. Payton was a former kindergarten student of Mrs. Booze, and she was excited to welcome her back. Thank you to Mrs. Ullom for arranging this collaboration, and to Payton for sharing her love of reading with many of the second grade students. We enjoyed having you!

The Ice Plant Restaurant, owned by Ms. Garlick's sister Lisa, was invited to be featured on a episode of America's Best Restaurants. It was only fitting to include some of the CTC's best culinary students! Mr. Wagner, Culinary Instructor, Dylan Wilson and Harlan Bloom stepped in and worked alongside The Ice Plant staff and performed as if they had worked there for years.
When the episode airs, watch as Dylan takes the role as the head cook and prepares one of the restaurants most popular meals. Harlan can be found leading the salad prep area.
Both Dylan and Harlan did an amazing job and we are so proud of them!
