This past weekend Mrs. Arnold took our our HOSA members to Louisville to compete at the state level. We are proud of the students and their hard work. Paisley Gay and Lily States placed 3rd in the state in Health Care Display! Great job ladies!
During the month of February at LCATC the word of the month for our students was Perseverance. The meaning of this word is doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success. The following has had great success this month. Bryon Bailey (Industrial Maintenance/HVAC), Jayde Rothwell (Health Science), Acie Douglas (Computerized Manufacturing), Mason Waddell (Computer Science), and Colton Harris (Welding). Congrats on being named students of the month!

Congrats to Evan Estes on earning his EPA 608 Universal Certification! #KYCTEmonth #TechPays
This certification is required for every technician to demonstrate that technicians have the knowledge and ability to safely maintain, service, repair, or dispose of refrigerant-containing equipment in order to help preserve and protect the environment.
1. For servicing small appliances (Type I).
2. For servicing or disposing of high- or very high-pressure appliances, except small appliances and MVACs (Type II).
3. For servicing or disposing of low-pressure appliances (Type III).
4. For servicing all types of equipment (Universal). Achieving the Universal level ensures you are certified in every type of equipment. Fortunately, once you have obtained your certification you will never have to take the test again. The certification never expires and never has to be renewed. Great Job!
Wow!!! Four HVAC students just earned their EPA 608 Universal Certification! Pictured left to right: Hunter Doss, Bryon Bailey, Mr. Adam Basham, Logan Oney, and Caleb Bruner (front row-Garrard County High). #KYCTEmonth #TechPays

Logan Oney is hard at work brazing 3/8" copper refrigeration tubing in his HVAC class today. Today each student learned a necessary skill needed by all HVAC service technicians. The swaging process is used to make a permanent braze connection, and is essential in the HVAC industry.
