![Skills USA Competition](https://hub.hindscc.edu/hs-fs/file-650938912-jpg/images/medal_2.jpg?width=325&height=242&name=medal_2.jpg)

The [Machine Tool Technology](http://catalog.hindscc.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=6&poid=439&returnto=143) program on the Raymond Campus, along with the program instructor, Mr. Norman Trimble are excited to announce that William Tolbert placed 1st in the state of Mississippi in the Precision Machining competition which was held recently in the Jackson metro area. This qualifies him to compete in the [SkillsUSA National Championship](http://www.skillsusa.org/compete/skills.shtml) which will be held this summer in Kansas City, Missouri. This contest brings together gold-medal winners from separate competitions at secondary and post-secondary levels across the United States. It is a multimillion-dollar event that occupies a space equivalent to 16 football fields.

Will has used these skills to gain employment at [Milwaukee Tool](http://www.milwaukeetool.com/) while continuing his education. An interesting side note is that Will also placed 1st in the state in Precision Machining while a high school student at Forest High School located in Forest, Mississippi. 

In addition to Will the following students enrolled in post-secondary and secondary CTE programs in the Hinds district also placed.

**Post-Secondary Winners**
