District Governor #6490 John Calderon recently attended the Lincoln Rotary Club and delivered an informative presentation, offering valuable insight into how Rotary remains committed to its core values while making a meaningful impact in communities around the world.

During his visit, we were proud to present him with a check for the “Shoes for Orphan Souls” program, which will provide a significant number of children with new shoes—many receiving their very first pair. We are both humbled and honored to play a small part in making a difference in their lives.

LTEC is proud to recognize February Student of the Month, TJ Morris, a dedicated and driven student in the Automotive Technology programs. TJ is the son of Tara & Dwayne Morris. He has spent the past two years in the autos program, where he has distinguished himself as both a leader and a standout student.

Automotive Technology Instructor Jon Graber shared, "TJ has been in my auto class for two years. He is one of my brightest students. He has taken over the role of being a shop leader. He will take on any project I ask, but is also keen enough to help when not asked. I have thoroughly enjoyed having him in class the past two years. I look forward to see where he goes.”

TJ’s passion for the automotive field began with a lifelong interest in fixing things. He appreciated that learning how to repair vehicles not only saves money, but builds valuable life skills. He credits the positive environment and strong instruction in the program as the reasons he has enjoyed his experience at LTEC. He especially values the hands-on learning opportunities that LTEC classes provide.

In addition to Automotive Technology, he has taken a wide range of courses including Introduction to Woods, Advanced Woods, Introduction to Autos, Introduction to Metals, Piano and Public Speaking. His diverse interests reflect both his curiosity and willingness to challenge himself.

Outside the classroom, he works as a waiter at IMO’s Cafe and is actively involved in school organizations including LEAF, ASL, FBLA, FCA, and Chess Club. He has been a member of the soccer and bass fishing teams for four years. In his free time, he enjoys riding four-wheelers, playing guitar, spending time with friends, and growing in his faith.

As Student of the Month, TJ will receive a $50 award sponsored by the Rotary Club of Lincoln. LTEC congratulates TJ Morris on his leadership, work ethic, and commitment to excellence. We are excited to see all that he accomplishes in the future.
