He’s pictured with fellow students to find instructions to practice setting valve lash on a Detroit DD15 Engine. The Diesel Equipment Technology program prepares students for high-demand careers in the diesel industry, teaching skills in engine diagnostics, repair, and maintenance. Dual enrollment allows students to get a jump start on their career while earning high school credits. See Angie Knighton at BCHS for details on duel enrollment programs.
