Throughout the year, the Royal welding students have attended and represented Royal in 17 welding competitions and build off events. These events are held by the Texas High School Welding Series and are done in partnership with industry partners including employers and manufacturers in the welding industry. At each event the students get to compete against 300 to 500 students from all over the state of Texas for top prizes, scholarships, and placings. The biggest benefit is the students' ability to test for an industry-based certification (IBC) in front of a certified welding inspector (CWI). Below are the results of the hard work and dedication that our students have invested in our year and themselves.
21 Certifications
$19,000 in scholarships
