On January 10th, 2026, Daniel Flores traveled to the ACE Center at Virginia Randolph and competed in the SkillsUSA Virginia District 2 Welding contest. Daniel competed against 3 other contestants from ACE and Powhatan HS in building a weldment coupon. The contest required the students to read a blueprint, cut, fit, and build their projects using drawing/welding symbol interpretation techniques, as well as various hand/power tools and welding processes. Daniel represented Buckingham CTE and BCHS with great poise and integrity; he learned many things about himself and the trade during the event, and even received a job offer from two judges!
Winners will be announced at the SkillsUSA District 2 awards ceremony at the ACE Center at Heritage in Richmond next Tuesday, January 20th. Winners will move on to the SkillsUSA State Championships in Virginia Beach, March 9-11.
Congratulations, Daniel, on putting yourself out there, and best of luck!

Good evening,
Yesterday morning, our team identified an HVAC issue affecting our primary school. Our service partner, Honeywell, has been on site working to diagnose and repair the problem. While progress has been made, the issue has not yet been fully resolved.
Crews will continue working through the night, and we are hopeful the system will be fully operational by the morning. Out of an abundance of caution, we recommend that students come to school tomorrow with an extra jacket or gloves, just in case temperatures fluctuate.
We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to resolve this issue as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your support.
