More than 5,500 people attended the 2013 National Technology Student Association (TSA) Conference held from June 28 to July 2 at the Rosen Shingle Creek Resort in Orlando, FL. Middle and high school student members competed in more than 60 competitive events based on principles and concepts learned through projects during the school year in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) subjects. The student team of Tobin Barnes and Robert Kyle of Carver High School placed ninth among 24 teams that participated in the high school level Computer Numerical Control (CNC) Production event.

Barnes and Kyle each received Top 10 TSA National Finalist pins in recognition of their achievement. Engineer instructors Ronald Hirtriter and Dr. Portia D. West at Carver High teach both students.

The 2013 conference’s theme, “A Tradition of Excellence,” celebrated the contributions of advancing technology in society.
