BUCHANAN, Mich. -- Buchanan Community Schools announced that four students in their Career and Technical Education (CTE) Electrical program earned their FCC Amateur Radio licenses on Monday.

The four passing students, Marley Hinds, Taryn Hartman, Kyle Kirk, and Sheldon Cornelius, are now authorized to use advanced wireless communications technology.

CTE students sat for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Technician Class Amateur Radio license exam, which asked students to display knowledge in electrical theory, wireless communications, radio infrastructure, and electrical safety.

Buchanan Community Schools also noted that students who did not pass the exam will have an opportunity to re-test later in the school year.
