Students complete carpentry module
Six Life Skills Center- Escambia students, (Cordarron Boykin, Byron Franklin, Gerrard Graham, Willie James, Alton Moss, and Steven Sherrod), successfully completed their first carpentry module in April. These students have volunteered over 480 hours of labor with Habitat for Humanity.
The carpentry program has four modules. Each module consists of various aspects of carpentry from measuring to framing. Students who enroll in the program will have the opportunity to build homes throughout the community. More importantly, once completed they will have the opportunity to negotiate competitive salaries in this field.
The Life Skills Center (LSC) Escambia and Pensacola Junior College (PJC) have collaborated to dual enroll students in several of PJC’s vocational and academic programs. Students who dual enroll in one of PJC’s vocational or academic programs have the opportunity to earn college credits, valuable skills and/or experience in a particular field of study or trade while earning their high school diploma at the LSC Escambia.
Since January 2007, the LSC Escambia has had 10 students participate in the carpentry program, 1 student in the electrical program, and 3 students in the automotive program. Currently, the school has 9 students enrolled in carpentry and 3 students waiting to attend PJC’s automotive program in June. As enrollment increase, the LSC Escambia is anticipating more students' involvement in the months to come.

Graduation Committee holds senior parent meeting
On May 9, LSC Escambia invited the parents of the June 2007 graduates to an informational graduation meeting. The meeting lasted over an hour. During the meeting, the graduation committee discussed pertinent information concerning their child’s academic, testing, and vocational status. Parents were given a copy of a contract signed by their child, the vocational specialist, and their homeroom teacher. The contract stated areas that their child will have to complete in order to meet the graduation requirements for June.
The parents were able to learn more about the Life Skills Center and how they can become more a part of their child’s educational endeavors.
