A wonderful afternoon at Geneseo High School as we officially dedicated the Ted McAvoy Career and Technical Education Center!
GHS Vocational Director Travis Mackey introduced Mr. McAvoy, who shared career reflections and expressed deep gratitude for his colleagues, the community, and his wife, Marilyn.
The dedication also celebrated the bright future of the trades in our district. Mr. McAvoy took time to recognize GHS student Alex Davis for a remarkable milestone: completing the residential carpentry apprenticeship program and surpassing 4,000 hours of industry training.
Congratulations to Mr. McAvoy on this well-deserved honor, and to Alex for carrying on a proud tradition of excellence.
