Law & Public Safety students designed and competed in an obstacle course that blended relevant skill sets with a workout. This challenged their skills under stress and helped them to identify what they need to work on. This partner course had a sandbag carry, medicine ball toss, door breach, a run, a dummy carry, applying a tourniquet and making a radio call.
Last but not least- we want to thank the businesses and organizations that contributed to the success of our 2024 Tech or Treat! With 32 trunk-or-treaters set up, five donors that covered laser tag, inflatables, and supplies, and four food trucks sharing a portion of their proceeds, the evening was a HUGE success. Your support keeps our event going from year to year!
Here’s the map for tonight’s activities! 🗺️ Please check the layout for trunk or treat 🎃 and the locations of other events. We’ll use exterior doors for games and crafts ✂️ to help ease hallway congestion. Gates open at 5 PM! ⏰ Can’t wait to see you there! 🙌
⚠️Our students have been hard at work preparing for tomorrow! ⚠️
Shout out to all the businesses and organizations that have donated time and money to make our event a success! We currently have 27 businesses signed up to pass out candy and goodies for trunk or treat.
Plan to stick around after trunk or treat to visit the haunted house🤡, jump in the inflatables, watch a demonstration by Tyler County Search and Rescue, get your face painted, play laser tag and VR games, create crafts, and enjoy some fun carnival games!
We’ve also planned dinner for you! Wood Chipps, Sisters Samurai Hibachi, Pressed, and Twisted Toppings! The weather looks PERFECT, so bring the whole family out for an evening of fun!
Tomorrow's the big day!

Computer Repair's September Community Week was a success, with 12 devices brought in for repairs. This event not only helped us serve the community but also provided valuable hands-on experience for our students.
Comments from happy customers included:
"Helped me out with problems"
"I was greeted by very friendly staff and shown where to go, where I met the students and the instructor. They immediately introduced themselves and let me know my 2 laptops were going to be ok, although I kind of doubted that because they were in bad shape. BUT THEY FIXED THEM PERFECT!!! These are like 2 brand new laptops, I AM AMAZED!!! This was such a lifesaver for me because I need my laptops for school and now I can use them. THANK YOU!!!!!!!"
"Got my computer system back up and running fast! It was really sluggish, and they did a great job bringing it back to life! And it was done in no time!"
Our MOVTI ghosts and ghouls are busy getting ready for the big event next week! We have a very exciting evening planned so be sure to get dressed up and come see us! Tuesday, October 22. Gates open at 5:00!

Law & Public Safety students were invited by Prosecutor Brian Carr to visit the courthouse in St. Marys to see arraignments and learn court procedures. Judge Timothy Sweeney explained the roles of various courtroom staff.
