Questar III BOCES Career and Technical Education Class of 2025 SkillsUSA National Signing Day Participants. Top: Robert H. Gibson Technical School; Bottom: Donald R. Kline Technical School.
On May 6. 2025, more than forty Questar III BOCES Career and Technical Education students participated in the SkillsUSA National Signing Day, a nationwide celebration of the next generation of skilled professionals and the skilled career paths that strengthen our country.
These seniors were joined by Questar III staff, family, friends, and future employers as they signed a letter of intent to pursue skilled career paths following graduation. These students have already secured post-graduation employment or have committed to continuing their education in their desired field.
“The SkillsUSA National Signing Day is a powerful reminder that success takes many forms,” shared Questar III BOCES District Superintendent Dr. Glady Cruz. “We are proud of our students who have committed to a career in the skilled trades, filling essential roles within our communities. This event is more than a signing – it’s a celebration of their hard work, dedication, and the bright futures they’re bringing.”
Congratulations to our students!
