Competing in the Quiz Bowl segment, Cadet Davis and a team of six students from North Point High School faced the challenge of answering trivia questions on current events, SkillsUSA Foundation information, and general knowledge in math and sciences. Reflecting on her experience, Cadet Davis said, "Preparing for my competition in Quiz Bowl caused me to be more aware of what's happening in the news and current events. At times it could be stressful and intimidating, but, in the end, I had a lot of fun making new friends and competing."
Meanwhile, Cadet Perez took on the Criminal Justice portion of the event, going solo against 40 other students from across the United States. She showcased her expertise in various police-related scenarios, such as traffic stops, welfare checks, theft reports, fingerprinting, and composing detailed reports.

With their training, guidance, and support, I have learned valuable skills that will enhance my future career as well as my personal life. I'm proud to say I placed 4th in the country, and I'm excited to move forward on my journey into a career in the criminal justice field."
Cpl. Jen Brown, who leads the Career and Technology Criminal Justice Program, shared her admiration for the young achievers, stating, "I am so proud of the accomplishments of these students. Their dedication is admirable, and I hope it encourages other students to participate in SkillsUSA."
