Tri County Tech student, Devon Schell, was recently named the Downtown Kiwanis Club’s High School Student of the Month for March. Schell, a Nowata High School senior, is currently enrolled in the Culinary Arts program and will graduate May 19, 2020.

Schell said he has always loved the idea of being able to cook.

“What first piqued my interest in cooking was going on a mission trip for the first time and being forced into the kitchen to cook for kids,” Schell said. “Once I got to Tri County I saw all these ways you could express yourself through food.”

In addition to the Culinary Arts program, Schell is involved at both his high school and in his community. He plays football, basketball and golf. He is also a member of Fellowship of Christian Athletes, FFA, Bible Club, Student Council, and Backgammon Club. He also attends mission trips every summer.

“Schell is a quiet, serious student who participates in many after hour events,” Tara Burkhead, TCT Culinary Arts Instructor. ” He is a leader in our program. He is a quiet professional.”

Upon graduation, Schell plans to attend Manhattan Christian College in Manhattan, Kansas, and major in Missionary Studies.
