I taught electrical construction at a Trade High School In Salt Lake City Utah from 1996 until 2002. I also taught Electricity at the Apprenticeship Program at the Salt Lake Community College.
I had students that were awarded medals at the Skills USA contests in Kansas City Missouri and I had gang bangers that participated in drive by shootings. There was never a dull moment in six years. I loved the job and all the kids including the gangbangers.
