Jon Critser- Industrial Technology

    I began my teaching career in 1999 after earning my Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Technology from Peru State College (aka Harvard of the Plains). My first two years, I taught at Wymore Southern. In 2001, I accepted a position at Cedar Bluffs Public Schools. I really enjoy teaching and coaching at Cedar Bluffs because the school board, administration, parents, students, community, and surrounding area businesses have been very supportive of what we are trying to teach our students. In 2005, I earned my Master’s degree in Industrial Technology from Wayne State College. I am currently the head Junior High Football Coach and Co-FBLA sponsor.
    

    We have excellent facilities for students to work hands-on with the latest technology. Most of the equipment in the lab is from 2001 or newer; our students should have the best and latest technology in the classroom. With this comes responsibility from our students to help take care of our equipment to keep it in great working condition for others to use. I feel if we have the latest technology in the lab, students might have an advantage when they venture into the workforce or college. In 2009, through the assistance of a $10,000 Fremont Area Community Foundation grant, the Cedar Bluffs School Board, and area businesses we were able to purchase a CNC Laser Engraver. The Laser Engraver has been an awesome learning tool for our students and they are eager to use it in their projects and other projects around school, such as making our own plaques for the Sports Banquet and Awards Night. We have been able to not only use it in my classes but other teachers have been able to use the Laser Engraver as well. It has given our students the opportunity to learn firsthand about a current process used in manufacturing.

Below you will find a list of the current classes that we offer in my area:
7th and 8th grade Exploratory
7th and 8th grade Woodworking
Mechanical Drafting
Computer Aided Design

If you have any questions or needs that one of our classes could assist you in, please feel free to contact me at 628-2080, leave me a voice mail and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
