🎉 Tiger Industries Gives Back! –

Advancing Student Skills Together 🎉

We’re beyond grateful to Tiger Industries for donating a state-of-the-art CNC plasma cutter plus a full year’s supply of consumables to our Advanced Manufacturing lab. Their support means our students can turn classroom theory into hands-on mastery!

📦 What Tiger Donated

🔹 Industrial-grade CNC plasma cutter (4' × 8' table)
🔹 One-year consumables kit (nozzles, electrodes, shielding gas)

🚀 Why It Matters for Students

Real-world practice: Cut, etch, and fabricate metal projects exactly like in modern shops.
Credentials faster: Use the machine to earn NCCER, OSHA, and AWS certifications before graduation.
Competition edge: Craft precision parts for SkillsUSA, VEX Robotics, and senior capstone projects.

🤝 Community Impact

🌟 Tiger’s gift supports “Real Learning for the Real World.”
🌟 Strengthens regional workforce pipelines in advanced manufacturing.
