East Career & Technical Academy (ECTA) is seeking pledges to support four talented students participating in the national SkillsUSA competition in Atlanta, GA.
Typically, this funding would be provided from the school’s operating budget. However, East Tech—a nationally-ranked magnet school in an underserved area—currently lacks the necessary funds due to budget cuts and insufficient local investment in the nation’s fifth-largest school district (CCSD).
The Information Technology (I.T.) Department is proudly led by a United States Army Veteran, Mr. Rigo, and has three teams that have already achieved impressive placements at the regional level:
Team 1: Cybersecurity – Gold
Team 2: Cybersecurity – Silver
Team 3: Robotics – Silver
The $8,000 will cover registration fees, lodging expenses, travel, and all other expenditures for the four participants first time representing the Titans @ SkillsUSA Nationals.
This is more than a competition; it’s a chance to showcase their skills on a national stage and inspire pride in the East Las Vegas community.
Your support is greatly appreciated & will pave the way for the future leaders in technology, cybersecurity, and engineering.
