What's happenin' at CCHEC?

Earlier this month, our students had an awesome field trip, as they helped put up this new fencing as part of the Pole Canyon Spring Development Project in partnership with Bureau of Land Management! Students worked hard, listened carefully, and did a great job from start to finish! Thank you to BLM for providing these hands-on learning experiences out in the field.

Way to go, everyone!✨👏✨👏✨
