On Wednesday, junior Riley Smith represented Sanford Regional Technical Center (SRTC) at the Maine State Capitol in Augusta to help launch Career and Technical Education Month.
During the event, Riley had the opportunity to meet and engage with Maine legislators, state leaders, and staff. She currently serves as Secretary of SRTC’s SkillsUSA chapter, a national organization that prepares students to become skilled professionals, career-ready leaders, and responsible community members.
Later this year, Riley will compete in the SkillsUSA competition in Bangor, demonstrating the skills she has developed in the Digital Design program. Strong performance at this event could lead to national-level competition or scholarship opportunities.
Congrats Riley!
