Summary:Belfry ATC Summer Coal Camp
Description:“Because of the new Coal Academy, it was our goal to provide students with an opportunity to enhance their knowledge of how the coal industry works and how our economy relies on workers who are proficient in technical skills, mathematic, scientific and writing. Our teachers developed projects that relate to coal and talked to the students about the skills they could learn in each specific program area. As well, we were fortunate to have some professionals on hand from our local area to offer informative presentations on the history of coal mining and the mining industry as it is today in Pike Co. Students were encouraged to participate in traditional and nontraditional activities including performance of emergency management duties, clerical and administrative support duties, coal identification applications, equipment maintenance duties and coal mining applications. The career camp provided students with a fun learning environment filled with experiences different from those found in a typical middle school classroom atmosphere.”Annette Harris-WardBelfry ATC Principal
