A house RESOLUTION

 

TO CONGRATULATE THE YORK TECHNICAL COLLEGE SKILLSUSA TEAM ON WINNING THE 2025 SKILLSUSA NATIONAL LEADERSHIP AND SKILLS CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE IN THE FIELDS OF NURSING ASSISTING AND CAREER PATHWAYS IET AND TO EXTEND TO THE TEAM BEST WISHES FOR MUCH CONTINUED SUCCESS IN ALL ITS FUTURE ENDEAVORS.

 

Whereas, ready for the challenge, the members of the York Technical College (York Tech) SkillsUSA team competed at the 2025 SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference in Atlanta, Georgia, and came away with four national title winners among their ranks. It was the third consecutive year the college had earned national champion status, this time in the areas of nursing assisting (one gold winner) and career pathways IET (three gold winners). These wins marked a historic milestone in South Carolina's technical education landscape; and

 

Whereas, at this year's national competition, York Tech sent twenty-seven students to compete across twenty-five career and technical fields. An extraordinary twenty-two of these students placed in the Top 10 nationally, with four gold medals, four silver medals, and three bronze medals awarded to the college's competitors; and

 

Whereas, these results place York Tech among the most successful SkillsUSA chapters in the nation and reflect the strength of the school's workforce development programs in fields such as engineering, health sciences, building construction, nursing, and advanced manufacturing; and

 

Whereas, bearing an influence beyond medals and rankings, these accomplishments reflect the life-changing impact of career and technical education. Many of York Tech's students are first-generation college students, and several already have secured employment, internships, or promotions as a direct result of their SkillsUSA experience. They are hardworking, resilient, and eager to serve the growing skilled-labor needs of South Carolina, and their stories exemplify the power of technical education and demonstrate the pipeline of talent being developed in York County; and

 

Whereas, Allison Terry, department chair for building construction trades and director for SkillsUSA at York Technical College, led the college's efforts to assist team members in reaching their highest potential at the national competition, with the outstanding support of a team of student advisors; and

 

Whereas, pleased and proud, the South Carolina House takes great pleasure in saluting the York Tech SkillsUSA team for its exceptional achievements at the 2025 SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference. Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate the York Technical College SkillsUSA team on winning the 2025 SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference Championship title in the fields of nursing assisting and career pathways IET and extend to the team best wishes for much continued success in all its future endeavors.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Dr. Stacey Moore, president, and Allison Terry, director for SkillsUSA, of York Technical College.
