CCHS Senior Travis Gore Named ATC November Rotary Student of the Month

Calloway County High School senior Travis Gore has been recognized as the November Area Technology Center Student of the Month by the Rotary Club of Murray.

At ATC, Gore is a standout student in his third year in the machine tool classroom, completing the career pathway and earning NIMS certification. At CCHS, he has achieved a 3.85 grade point average while taking numerous dual credit and honors classes. Upon graduation, Gore is projected to have 13 hours of college credit.

“I am nominating Travis Gore not only because of his good attitude and behavior, but because of his great work ethic and leadership,” wrote ATC machine tool teacher Kevin Colston. “He has also taken up the task on his own to show lower-level students how to use certain machines so there will be others who will know how to use them when he graduates. This young man has a bright future ahead of him, not only in life but in the workforce as well.” 

Outside the classroom, Gore is on the Laker archery team and in the BETA club. In addition to his school work, he also holds a part-time job at Murray Mold and Die where he works an additional 20 hours each week.

After graduating from CCHS in May, Gore plans to attend Murray State to study engineering to begin a career as a machinist.

Travis is the son of Shawn and Teresa Gore.
