On Wednesday, May 1st, FSHS computer science teacher Matt Glades took some students to JCCC in Overland Park to take the CompTIA Core 1 A+ certification test. A+ is a two-part certification process for IT professionals and is a world-recognized standard. The exam is 90 multiple-choice questions that must be completed in a 90-minute time frame. Students must score 675 or higher to pass the exam. You can learn more about it at https://www.comptia.org/certifications/a#overview.

Mr. Glades shares this about the experience:

As for the results, five students came up just short of the 675 mark. To put it this way, we had some students who were within a few correct answers of passing. I want to applaud their efforts and courage in taking the test. Those students who participated were Aidan Stoughton, Adam Wright, Landon Hill, Dawson Korinke, and Daymeion Anderson.

The good news is that they are eager to get back in the fight and take it again.

Additionally, I’m proud to announce that we did have one student who passed the test. Congratulations to sophomore Rylan Miller who passed with a score of 700.

He will be attempting Core 2 next year.

Please join me in encouraging and applauding these Tigers for all of their efforts and successes!
