There are six students in the masonry program at Southern Vance High School who have received certifications in two specialty areas.
Each of the students received certifications that qualify them for employment in masonry work. The certifications are in Core Curriculum and Green Environment. The certifications were granted through the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER).
Students, all taught by masonry instructor Ben Arrington, receiving the certifications are shown in the accompanying photo with Arrington, standing at far left. The students include, from left, Amari Harris Jr., Daquan Valentine, Kaymaya Valentine and Logan Benedict. Two other students, Samonte Henderson and Sampson Brummitt, received the certifications, but were unavailable for the photo.
