The SkillsUSA Nevada Automotive Maintenance and Light Repair state finals tested students' knowledge and provided an opportunity for them to learn their strengths and areas needing improvement, and meet other competitors.

鈥淚t鈥檚 a big day for us and an opportunity to bring attention to our facilities and program nationally,鈥� said 黑料网 Auto Mechanics Instructor Alex Street, who, along with colleague Sunshine Haupt, prepared E.L. Automotive Technology Center for the state competition.

High school students from Southern Nevada participated in the SkillsUSA鈥檚 series of events leading up to nationals. Testing ranged from inspections of engine bays, brakes, wheels, a 100-point check, circuits, and more.
