The Carroll County Area Technology Center’s welding program recently received a $4,000 grant from Airgas, which sent representatives to visit with the students and learn more about the program.
Welding instructor Justin Tingle used the grant money to purchase essential items such as welding hoods, safety equipment and grinding disks. Local support from Airgas employees Quinton Featherstone, the Terminal Manager at Ghent; Terry Barrett, the District Manager; and Wendy Clifford, Account Manager, made this grant possible.
Criss Spicer, North Zone Fleet Maintenance Manager-Merchant Gases at Airgas, said the welding program’s students and increased number of female welders in the class was inspiring. He praised the class for being grateful for the equipment and being engaged with Airgas representatives when they visited the ATC.
"Industry partners like Airgas keep our programs competitive. Mr. Tingle does an incredible job of working to provide the best learning experience he can for our students,” said ATC Principal Kirk Brooks. “Support from companies like Airgas ensure that the young men and women of our communities arrive at adulthood with the best training our school has to offer. I am very grateful for their support and generosity."

Carroll County Area Technology Center students began learning how to hang drywall ceilings and walls in the carpentry class. The drywall materials were donated by CertainTeed St. Gobain. Last year, these same students built the subfloors and framed the walls for the Pod structures. Now in year two of the program, the future carpenters will complete the interior finishes.

Carroll County Area Technology Center welding students worked with materials donated by our community partner, NUCOR Steel Gallatin. The materials are valued at $4,000. Thank you to NUCOR for this tremendous contribution to the ATC's welding program! (Photos courtesy of Mr. Tingle.)
