Introducing Mr. Keith Andersen — our Industrial Technology teacher!
You’ll find Mr. Andersen in the shop sparks flying (safely! 😉) as he teaches students the fundamentals of woodworking and welding. When he’s not building skills and confidence in the classroom, he’s advising and cheering on our students in SkillsUSA competitions. Hands-on learning is his specialty! 🔨🔥🏆
