Precision Machining Senior Headed to Nationals

Nick Moultrie.pngNorth Technical Precision Machining student Nick Moultrie returned from the State SkillsUSA Competition held at Linn State Technical College with a 1st place medal in the CNC Milling Technology contest.  This senior now is setting his sights on even higher achievements as he represents North Technical High school in the National Competition which will be held at Kansas City in June. Precision Machining instructor Brett Smith says “Nick Moutrie is an amazing young man who has a bright future ahead of him.  Nick comes in everyday with the desire to learn everything he possibly can, making him one of the top students in class.  Through his natural ability and hard work, Nick learned more about programming the CNC mill machine than any other student in class.  This knowledge helped catapult him into a first place victory at the Skills USA Missouri State Competition, thus giving Nick the privilege to represent North Technical High school at the SkillsUSA Nationals in Kansas City.  Not only is he able to program CNC mills, but he is also very talented at operating manual machines (mills, lathes, and surface grinders) and CNC lathes.   Nick has a wonderful attitude and an outstanding personality.  Anything is possible in his mind.  He gets along with his fellow peers and adults equally, and is a pleasure to have as a student.”  Nick says he is planning on attending Ranken Technical College after graduating from North Technical. Whatever his future endeavors are, it looks like this North Technical senior is on track to a successful career.
