WAVE JTED Releases Over One Million to Local High Schools

At the meeting held May 2 in Kingman the WAVE governing board granted two $25,000 grants to River Valley High School and Mohave High School for a total of $50,000 in Growth and Sustainability Grants. The two high schools will be using the funds for wireless computer labs. The labs will be used to give instruction and to assess students in the various CTE state tests.

WAVE JTED approved their third payment for the five partner schools based on the student enrollment counts in the various career and technical education classes. The counts came from the 100th day enrollment figures. River Valley High School received $106,000 and Mohave High School received $240,000. Lake Havasu received $304,000, Kingman received $380,000 and Parker High School received $68,000 for a total distribution of $1,098,000.

The board again congratulated the schools on having such outstanding performances at state competitions and having so many students qualify for national competitions.

Lake Havasu High School and Kingman High School recently completed an MCC visit where they toured the campus and learned about dual enrollment. The students from Parker High School went to Yuma to tour Arizona Western. These trips were made possible by a Governor’s Grant to the West Central Regional Training Center, of which WAVE is a part. |
