We are incredibly proud to celebrate these Meridian High School students who have successfully completed all requirements to earn the American Welding Society (AWS) D1.1 2F Structural Steel Welding Certification—an industry-recognized credential that opens doors to high-demand careers:
👏 Jesse Scott
👏 Ellie Baker
👏 Dustin Padgett
👏 Thomas Denman
👏 Bradly Perry
We also want to give a special shout-out to Taylor Brown, who has met all certification requirements as well. Due to certification expiration timelines, her official AWS paperwork will be completed during her senior year—but her accomplishment deserves recognition now!
