Attention to detail matters!

Marine & RV Technology student Peter Harris put his electrical knowledge on full display with this detailed system schematic. From power distribution to lighting and accessories, every connection had to be planned, mapped, and understood.

OUT OF THE WASTELANDS... THEY CAME.

Fueled by determination, questionable engineering decisions, and just enough battery power to be dangerous...

The students in Mr. Jenkins' electrical class are preparing for ROBOT WARS... sorta.

Tiny machines, with 1,200mAh of pure destruction!

Soon these custom-built combat vehicles will battle for glory, bragging rights, and absolute classroom legend status.

The arena is ready.

The drivers are talking trash.

The countdown has begun.

ROBOT WARS... Sorta — COMING SOON

Meanwhile in the Welding & Fabrication Lab...

Sierra Aguilar demonstrates TIG welding on aluminum, a process that requires precision, patience, and attention to detail. Aluminum can be one of the more challenging materials to weld, making it an excellent skill for students to develop as they prepare for careers in the welding industry.

DATE Students Visit Vanguard Truck Centers
On Thursday, May 28, students from J-Tech's Diesel Advanced Technology Education (DATE) program visited Vanguard Truck Centers in Savannah to gain firsthand exposure to the transportation industry and the career paths it offers.

During the visit, students toured the facility, explored dealership operations, and gained valuable insight into the technologies, tools, and processes that drive today's transportation industry.

We would like to extend a sincere thank you to the team at Vanguard Truck Centers for taking the time to host our students and share their knowledge and experience. Industry partnerships like these play an important role in preparing the next generation of diesel technicians for success.

Advanced Aluminum Welding with a Push-Pull MIG System

In this video, Mr. Waters demonstrates a push-pull MIG welding system while welding aluminum. Unlike a traditional spool gun, a push-pull setup uses both the wire feeder and the gun to move the wire smoothly through the system, providing more consistent feeding, better control, and increased productivity.

Push-pull systems are widely used in professional fabrication environments where weld quality and efficiency are critical. By training with advanced equipment and techniques, J-Tech students gain valuable exposure to the tools they may encounter in the field.

From foundational skills to industry-standard technology, Mr. Waters' class is helping students build the knowledge and experience needed for successful careers in welding and fabrication.
