Mason Higgins
West Bend
Mason Higgins is 18, in his first year at Moraine Park and only a few credits shy of a college degree because he took all the manufacturing courses available to him through the Start College Now program in high school.
“I took Intro to Welding as a high school freshman and after hours of welding time, I knew for certain this would be my career.”
Higgins began working at Metalcraft of Mayville as part of his high school’s Youth Apprenticeship program. Now, he works full-time, five nights a week while taking courses at Moraine Park.
“The opportunities I got from Moraine Park’s partnership with my high school have helped me get ahead financially. I was able to start laying the groundwork for my future before graduating and I’m confident and prepared as I move into my next chapter.”
Damien Garza
Fond du Lac
“When I came to Moraine Park, I did not want to do any extracurriculars,” MPTC student, Damien Garza, said. “I was here to do a job. I had been through school before, and I knew the drill: show up, do the work, get the grades and graduate. Eventually, after attending a few meetings, my mind started to change.”
Garza serves as Moraine Park’s Fond du Lac Student Senate President and the College’s District Student Government (DSG) President.
