The competition brings together top secondary and post-secondary students from across Ontario to demonstrate their practical knowledge and hands-on expertise under strict time limits and rigorous judging standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Hamilton, the bronze medal reflects countless hours of preparation, technical training, and problem-solving in HVACR systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Huntsville High School construction teacher David Lomas said Hamilton\u2019s success is a testament to his dedication, strong work ethic, and ability to perform under pressure while competing against some of the province\u2019s top student tradespeople.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hamilton\u2019s achievement also adds to the longstanding success of the school\u2019s technology program. His bronze medal marks the 11th podium finish earned by Huntsville High School construction students at the provincial Skills Ontario competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As demand for skilled trades workers continues to grow across the province, Huntsville High School\u2019s hands-on learning programs continue to produce highly skilled students ready to pursue careers in the trades.<\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cayden Hamilton, a skilled student from Huntsville High School (HHS), showcased his technical abilities at the 2026 Skills Ontario Provincial Competition, earning a bronze medal in the demanding Refrigeration and [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1904,"featured_media":224003,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-223998","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
