ONTARIO — Students in the Ag Mechanics II class at Ontario High School recently got some hands-on experience and real-life certification. Each member of the class received their NC3 Snap-on Multimeter Certification. Bud Sebasto, Ag Science teacher at Ontario High, noted that this was the first time this type of certification has been offered at the high school.

Sebasto noted, “We would really like to thank the businesses that contributed to our program to bring this to our school. Hometown Chevrolet and Steve Dominguez, Thomas Motor Works and Kade Thomas, Campbell Electric and Luke Campbell, and Hata Electric and Travis Hata. Without these businesses we would not have been able to offer this opportunity to these students and this is a useful tool and skill for multiple trades.”
