Choffin students decorate windows

Youngstown

Students at Choffin Career and Technical Center decorated windows at the Gloria and Roger Jones OH WOW! Children’s Center for Science and Technology as part of the City of Youngstown’s holiday parade festivities.

Students in the junior section of Commercial Art made a window that represents all Youngstown City School buildings, and the Biotechnology program’s window represents the cloning of too many reindeer.

The “wow factor” at OH WOW! goes to the Construction program. The program made a moving Santa Ferris wheel. Several employees of OH WOW! even said “Oh wow” when the Ferris wheel was set up at the Children’s Center, according to Choffin officials. The windows will be on display for the holiday season.
