A simple hello can make a big difference! Last month, students celebrated Start With Hello Week with activities centered around connection, inclusion and kindness. Throughout the week, students greeted one another with green wristbands, added positive messages to a positivity wall, wore green, put their phones away at lunch to connect with classmates and wrapped up the week with a sweet treat! Thank you to our students and staff for helping create a school community where everyone feels seen, included and welcome. #PentaPride #SuccessReady

A new sidewalk on West Newton Road in Bowling Green is taking shape thanks to teamwork between Penta Construction Masonry students and our community partners! 👷 Fourteen Penta seniors have been working alongside the City of Bowling Green, Palmer Brothers Concrete and Thayer Automotive to help create a safer route to Penta’s Bowling Green regional campus for a fellow student who uses a wheelchair. From moving stone and preparing the site to pouring and raking concrete, students are putting their skills to work on a real jobsite while seeing firsthand how their work can make a difference for someone in their own community. Thank you to everyone who came together to make this project possible and provide our students with an opportunity to learn, contribute and serve their community!

A little creativity was blooming at the Wood County Fair! 🌸 On August 7, Penta students helped bring the Floral Challenge to life in the Free Tent, giving young fairgoers the chance to try their hand at floral design and create something of their own. It was a fun opportunity for our students to share their skills with the next generation while getting involved in one of our community’s favorite summer traditions. 🌼 #PentaPride #SucessReady

Friday brought plenty of excitement to the Penta campus as we welcomed new and returning students for the first day of the 2026-2027 school year! 🎉 As buses arrived from our member schools, Tonya Kessinger, director of Career-Technical Education, was there to greet students and welcome them to campus. New students jumped into orientation activities with their teachers and toured important offices to get familiar with Penta, while returning students caught up with friends and met the teachers who will be part of their year ahead. The energy across campus made one thing clear: Penta is back! 💙 We’re off to a great start and looking forward to everything this school year will bring. #PentaPride #SucessReady
