Johnson High Achieves Certification
With the rapid
advances in technology, it is
vitally important that stu
dents become technological
ly literate in order to remain
competitive in the increas
ingly global workforce.
It is the responsibility
of the Engineering and
Technology Education
Programs of SCCPSS to
ensure that our youth are
prepared and equipped with
the tools to succeed. For
this reason, the state of
Georgia has established a
system to certify programs
and recognize those that
maintain the highest stan
dards.
The Johnson High
School Engineering Program
was evaluated on June 4,
2012 and has achieved
Industry Certification. The
evaluation concluded that
Ms. Keisha Davis, robotics
and engineering instructor at
Johnson High School and
the Engineering and
Technology Educators pro
gram, met all 72 standards.
Ms. Keisha Davis
stepped in as the
Engineering instructor at
Johnson High School in
2007 and the program was
industry certified the year
before.
Her hard work and
dedication has allowed the
program to maintain its cer
tification status. She is com
mitted to maintaining the
high standards that are asso
ciated with this achieve
ment.
