From classroom to nationals 🏆

Midlands Technical College is sending off a group of Mavericks heading to the SkillsUSA National Leadership & Skills Conference in Atlanta, June 1–5.

These students earned their place after bringing home gold medals at the SkillsUSA South Carolina competition, and now they’re advancing to compete on the national stage in fields like welding, machine tool technology, IT, web design, and more.

The sendoff celebration at MTC’s Airport Campus brought together students, faculty, and leadership for a cookout and words of encouragement from Dr. Greg Little and college deans.

Now, it’s time for the next stop: nationals.

Break the Stigma was more than an event — it was a reminder that no one has to struggle alone.

Through powerful student stories and open conversations about mental health, healing, burnout, and resilience, attendees were encouraged to seek support, show compassion, and check in on one another.

Thank you to our speakers and everyone who helped make this conversation meaningful. 💚
