Griffen Turner LTEC March Student of the Month

 

[March 15, 2022]   Griffen Turner, son of Paul and Carrie Turner, was named the March Student of the Month for the Automotive Technology program at the Lincolnland Technical Education Center. Griffen is a senior at Lincoln Community High School and a first-year automotive technology student.

Mr. Jon Graber, instructor, selected Griffen for many reasons. “He is a pleasure to have in class, he is respectful, well-mannered and wants to learn."  Mr. Graber says Griffen is early every day to class and is the last to leave. "He is a very hard worker and doesn’t mind going the extra mile. I could go on and on about the positives Griffen brings to my class. I also see that he wants more than a free ride in life. He is willing to earn more than the minimum. I see a very prosperous future for Griffen.”

Griffen is a member of LCHS Fishing Team, Mt Pulaski Trap and Skeet Shooting Team, National Honor Society, and FFA. In fall 2021 he was 1st in conference and 2nd in all State for Trap Shooting and he finished 2nd for his record book in Ag Mechanics in FFA. He is also a 2021 FFA State Delegate.

Griffen has been accepted to Southwest Lineman Training Center in Trenton GA. Here Joseph will pursue an education to become an Electrical Lineman.

Griffen received $50 from the Kiwanis Club of Lincoln who sponsored this award.
