Our Apparel students are putting their skills into action! Students have been learning to follow a pattern and recently completed their first project: a tote bag! From understanding pattern instructions to bringing their designs to life, they’re building confidence and developing their sewing skills one stitch at a time. We’re proud of their hard work and creativity!

Our Adobe Visual, Adobe Video, and Fashion Merchandising students had the opportunity to learn from Kara Lawing, a former LCST student and NLHS graduate who is now a graphic designer at Boltgroup!

Students saw firsthand how the skills they’re building in class connect directly to real-world careers and industry expectations. From creative tools and design concepts to professional problem-solving, what students learn at LCST today can help prepare them for the careers of tomorrow.

Learn. Lead. Thrive.

Drone Technology Careers

LCST students were recognized in the Lake Norman Publications. Lincoln County students now have access to a new technical education program that prepares them for careers in the commercial drone industry through hands-on flight training and industry-recognized certifications.

Andrew Sabin, the instructor, has started talking with the local police and fire departments about potential guest speakers and job opportunities with search and rescue and fire containment, which are two growing drone pilot careers. Other careers include inspections for large companies like Duke Energy, real estate video sales and private party video and photography.

Mrs. Hovis’s Computer Science 2 students had the opportunity to work with 3rd graders from GE Massey to introduce them to the basics of coding. Through hands-on activities and teamwork, our high school students guided the younger learners in problem-solving, logical thinking, and creativity with technology. It was great to see our students building leadership skills while inspiring the next generation of coders.
