Micah Koenecke Named ATC September Rotary Student of the Month

Calloway County High School senior Micah Koenecke was named the Area Technology Center September Student of the Month by the Rotary Club of Murray.

Koenecke is a standout student at CCHS and ATC. His specialty at ATC is automotive tech, but he also has taken carpentry and welding classes. This year as a senior, Koenecke has a work cooperative where he takes classes in the morning and spends his afternoons working at Kentucky Lake Boatworks. He works 20-25 hours each week in addition to his school schedule.

Outside of the classroom, Koenecke is a leader in the Skills USA club at ATC, where as a junior he was the regional champion and finished second in the state in the automotive competition. He was also the top competitor on the CCHS Laker Golf team.

After graduation in May, Koenecke hopes to attend West Kentucky Community and Technical College where he can earn certifications in welding, heavy diesel, and/or automotive tech.

Micah is the son of BJ and Heather Koenecke.
