GREENVILLE HIGH SCHOOL CAREER-TECHNICAL CENTER HIGHLIGHTS
Mrs. Butts’ Supply Chain Management (SCM) class held its annual Stage Crew T-Shirt project. During the sale, students experienced the entire supply chain management process. They saw the information flow by contacting the supplier, transmitting the orders, and updating the delivery status. They experienced the product flow as they did promotions and monitored the goods from the supplier. In the final stages of the sale, they handled the financial flow, as they established payment schedules and the transfer of ownership of the goods to the consumer. Shaun Duplessis, a senior SCM student, qualified for a repeat appearance at national Business Professionals of America competition in Dallas, TX.

Auto Technology reports that senior Chris McDowell was named Outstanding Auto Student of the Year and was a finalist for the Jack F. Smith AYES scholarship.
