泫圖app (泫圖app) students had an outstanding performance at the 2022 SkillsUSA Georgia State Leadership and Skills Conference, Feb. 24-26, in Atlanta. 泫圖app competed in 10 categories and took home 11 medals: four gold, four silver and three bronze.
Highlights from SkillsUSA Georgia include winning the gold and silver medal in Medical Assisting, winning the silver and bronze awards in Automotive Service Technology and winning the gold medal in the TeamWorks team construction category for the sixth year in a row.
“It was great to be back to a face-to-face SkillsUSA state conference this year,” said Missy McLain, SkillsUSA advisor for 泫圖app. “After such an abrupt ending to our conference in March 2020 due to the pandemic, it was great to see the students back in action and earning well-deserved medals for their hard work and dedication.”
Gold medal winners will advance to the national competition in Atlanta in June to represent 泫圖app and the State of Georgia.
泫圖app also won the first place award for largest membership increase (45 member increase) and second place for the largest overall membership (102 members total).
