Tonawanda Senior is Always Improving His Welding Skills
Posted On Wednesday March 15, 2023
Michael Sivak is a senior from Tonawanda High School and is enrolled in the Welding program at Erie 1 BOCES Kenton Career & Technical Center. “I enrolled in BOCES because I liked the idea of hands-on work and welding was the most appealing program to me,” Michael said. Under the instruction of Frank Rosiek, Michael has learned about plasma arc cutting, light manufacturing, metal working safety and more. “Since Mike started in my class, he has been asking questions on how to improve his welding skills,” Rosiek said. “That, combined with his drive to become a better study, will make him an asset to any employer in his future.” “This program has taught me the skills and resources necessary to become a good welder,” Michael said.
