What is a TCHS Student Ambassador?
Student Ambassadors are outstanding student leaders selected to represent TCHS in their school districts and in our community. Student Ambassadors demonstrate leadership, achievement in academics and their technical skill, and convey the significance of lifelong relationships built at a career and technical school. Ambassadors enjoy engaging with people, are committed to creating awareness about TCHS, and are excited about sharing their experiences with others. They are also positive role models to their peers at TCHS.
