2022 CTE Month: Career and Technical Student Organizations
Editor’s Note: February is Career and Technical Education Month, a public awareness campaign to celebrate the value of CTE and the achievements and accomplishments of CTE programs across the country. To help Sulphur Springs High School celebrate CTE Month 2022, KSST has compiled short videos featuring a few of the CTE programs offered at SSHS.
Sulphur Springs High School students enrolled in Career and Technical Education classes, in addition to classroom programs and potential for internships, job shadowing and practicum classes where they learn the basics of and practice skills needed to work in their chosen career field also are given opportunities to participate in Career and Technical Student Organizations.
CTSOs not only extend learning from the classroom, but to develop strong skills in leadership, teamwork, project development, job-specific career skills. Students have the opportunity to enter competitions, travel, earn scholarships, network, and become successful!
SSHS students can become members of Business Professionals of America; Family, Career and Consumer Leaders of America, Future Farmers of America; Health Occupations Students of America; Robotics; Skills USA; and Texas Association of Future Educators.
Just as students who accel academically may become members of the National Honor Society, CTSO students who meet requirements may also apply for members ship in the National Technical Honor Society. Often many of NHS also are members of NTHS, the honor society for outstanding career and technical students.
As busy as the spring semester often become, representatives from most if not all of SSHS’ CTSO organizations make time in February to attend a school board meeting, to update these elected school leaders on what their organizations have been involved in, the things they’ve learned and achieved as part of the organizations,
The CTSO representatives select February to visit the school board to coincide with their month-long celebration of CTE programs. These student leaders typically take a moment to express exactly how the CTSOs and CTE courses have impacted their lives and personally thank the school board and administration for their continued support of CTE programs and CTSOs.
This month, students from all seven CTSOs spoke to the school board. They were as follows:
- Business Professional of America (BPA)- Jacob Semler
- Family, Career & Community Leaders of America (FCCLA)- Mykylie Meador
- FFA- Rylie Carroll, Caroline Coker
- Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA)- Bailee Burnett, Carter Owen

Cumby Police Arrest Dallas Pair Accused Of Having Psychedelic Mushrooms, Marijuana
Another Pair Jailed For Alleged MDMA Pill Possession
Cumby Police Department Officer Justin Talley arrested four people on controlled substance charges following two different Interstate 30 traffic stops over the weekend. A Dallas pair was accused of having marijuana and psychedelic mushrooms while a Mount Pleasant man and Naples woman allegedly had a bag of MDMA pills overnight Friday, the officer noted in arrest reports.
Traffic Stop At Mile Marker 115
Talley reportedly initiated a traffic stop after seeing an Honda Civic without operational license plate lights go past the 111 mile marker on I-30 east around 12:19 a.m. Monday. After catching up to the car, Talley initiated a traffic stop. The car pulled over onto the shoulder near mile marker 115.

Upon contact with the two occupants, Talley reported smelling a strong marijuana odor emitting from the car. Both occupants were removed from the car. While being escorted to out of the vehicle, front seat passenger Monserrat Olguin Rodriguez allegedly admitted she had marijuana in her pockets. A probable cause search of the car yielded additional marijuana and psilocybin, Talley alleged in arrest reports.
Psilocybin is a naturally occurring hallucinogenic chemical obtained from certain types of fresh and dried mushrooms that have slender stems topped by caps with dark gills on the underside, according to the US Drug Enforcement Administration.
This type of substance is typically ingested orally, brewed as tea or added to foods to mask their bitter flavor. Large amounts of psilocybin can cause panic attacks and psychosis, nausea and vomiting, muscle weakness and lack of coordination. An overdose of psychedelic mushrooms or psilocybin may result in psychosis or death. Often called “magic mushrooms” because of the hallucinogens can cause, psilocybins are similar to mescaline and peyote, according to a Department of Justice/DEA Drug Fact Sheet about psilocybin.

Psilocybin is a Schedule I substance under the Controlled Substances Act, meaning that it has a high potential for abuse, no currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States, and a lack of accepted safety for use under medical supervision. Scientists and medical professionals report there are 180-200 species of mushrooms that contain psilocybin.
Talley placed the 19-year-old woman and the driver, 24-year-old Anthony Nolasco into custody at 1:08 a.m. Feb. 28, 2022, and transported them to jail. The marijuana weighed 0.873 pound and the substance identified by the Cumby officer as Psilocybin mushrooms weighed 4.663 grams. Consequently, the Dallas pair was booked into Hopkins County jail at 2:49 a.m. Monday on possession of 4 ounces or more but less than 5 pounds of marijuana and possession of 4 grams or more but less than 400 grams of a Penalty Group 2 controlled substance- the psychedelic mushrooms.
Both Olguin-Rodriguez and Nolasco had been released from Hopkins County jail Monday evening on a $30,000 bond on the second-degree felony controlled substance charge and a $5,000 bond on the marijuana charge.
Traffic Stop At Mile Marker 113
CPD Officer Justin Talley also initiated a traffic stop on a Chevrolet Silverado at 11:32 p.m. Friday, Feb. 25, after seeing it accelerate past another vehicle at a high rate of speed on I-30 east. When he caught up to the pickup near mile marker 111, Talley noticed not only were the truck’s license plate lights not working, at least one license plate was obscured. He said the pickup was traveling at approximately 90 miles per hour in the 75 mph speed zone.

The truck pulled onto the shoulder near mile marker 113 on I-30 east. Upon contact with both occupants, Talley reported smelling a heavy alcohol odor emitting from the the vehicle. He reported seeing a beer bottle cap in the passengers lap. Talley claimed Lutrail Farrier showed him the Coors Light Beer bottle within his reach and admitted there was drug paraphernalia inside the truck too.
Talley alleged a probable cause search of the pickup revealed a leopard print backpack on the back left passenger’s seat. Inside the backpack, the policeman reported finding driver Otavia Gray’s ID information and a baggy containing pills, including five loose pills the officer believed was Ecstasy. The pills field-tested positive as containing detectable amounts of methylenedioxy-methamphetamine or MDMA, Talley alleged in arrest reports.
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, MDMA (3,4-Methylenedioxy-Methamphetamine) is most commonly known by the street names of ecstasy and molly and is similar to the stimulant amphetamine and the hallucinogen mescaline can produce both stimulant and mild sensory-altering effects. MDMA is usually taken orally, via tablet or capsule, and its effects last approximately 3-6 hours, though depression, sleep problems, and anxiety have been reported for days to weeks afterwards.

MDNA use can also cause some very serious health issues It can produce a significant increase in heart rate and blood pressure and a sense of alertness similar to that associated with amphetamine use. MDMA, the NIDA reports, can also cause a marked increase in body temperature (hyperthermia). Hyperthermia can lead to liver, kidney, and cardiovascular system failure. MDMA users can become dehydrated, prompting increased water consumption. In some cases, this has led to the problem of “water intoxication” or hyponatremia, a potentially fatal condition in which excessive water consumption causes a dramatic decrease in electrolytes. MDMA can affect the hormone that regulates the amount of sodium in the blood, which can also cause hyponatremia, according to the NIDA.
Although the 38-year-old Naples man claimed the substance as belonging to him, Talley took Farrier and the 34-year-old Mount Pleasant woman into custody at 12:31 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 26, 2022, and booked into Hopkins County jail on a possession of 1 gram or more but less than 4 grams of a Penalty Group 2 controlled substance charge, Talley noted in arrest reports.
Gray and Farrier (who jail records show, is also known by Lutriel Deon Farrier, Train, Lotrial Deion Farrier, Lutrial Dejon Farrier, Lutrial Delon Farrier and Lutrail Dejon Farrier) were released from Hopkins County jail later Saturday, Feb. 26, 2022, on a $10,000 bond each on the third-degree felony controlled substance charge.

Secretary Of State Gives Rundown On What To Expect At Polling Places On March 1, 2022

Voter ID Requirements, Cell Phones and Other Devices, What NOT To Wear, the 100-Foot Marker Explained
With Election Day for Party Primaries only hours away, Texas Secretary of State John B. Scott on Monday, Feb. 28, 2022, provided the a rundown on what voters should expect at polling places, including current voter ID requirements, cell phones and other devices, what not to wear and the 100-foot marker.
“More than 1.6 million Texas voters have already cast a ballot in this year’s primary elections, and we encourage all eligible voters who have not yet cast a ballot to make a plan to vote on Election Day tomorrow,” Texas Secretary of State John Scott said. “If you have questions about the voting process, we urge you to visit VoteTexas.gov or call the Texas Secretary of State’s office at 1-800-252-VOTE to get accurate information about your options for casting a ballot.”
Voter ID Requirements
Under Texas law, voters who possess one of the seven acceptable forms of photo ID must present that ID at the polls when voting in person. The acceptable forms of photo ID are:
- Texas Driver License issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS)
- Texas Election Identification Certificate issued by DPS
- Texas Personal Identification Card issued by DPS
- Texas Handgun License issued by DPS
- United States Military Identification Card containing the person’s photograph
- United States Citizenship Certificate containing the person’s photograph
- United States Passport (book or card)
Voters who do not possess and cannot reasonably obtain one of the seven approved forms of photo ID may fill out a Reasonable Impediment Declaration (RID) (PDF) at the polls and present an alternative form of ID, such as a utility bill, bank statement, government check, or a voter registration certificate.
Here is a list of the supporting forms of ID that can be presented if the voter does not possess one of the forms of acceptable photo ID and cannot reasonably obtain one:
- copy or original of a government document that shows the voter’s name and an address, including the voter’s voter registration certificate;
- copy of or original current utility bill;

Learn more about Voter ID requirements in Texas.
The 100-Foot Marker
When you go to your polling place, you will likely notice a cone or other distance marker placed 100 feet from the entrance of the building. Inside that 100 foot mark, you are not allowed to post, use or distribute any political signs or literature relating to a candidate, political party or measure appearing on your ballot in that election.
Cell Phones and Other Devices
Under Texas law, persons are not allowed to use wireless communications devices within 100 feet of voting stations. Additionally, persons are not allowed to use mechanical or electronic devices to record sound or images within 100 feet of the voting stations.
Devices that should not be used in the polling place include:
- Cell phones
- Cameras
- Tablet computers
- Laptop computers
- Sound recorders
- Any other device that may communicate wirelessly, or be used to record sound or images.
Please wait until you are 100 feet away from the voting stations at your polling place before taking an “I voted” selfie.
What can’t I wear to the polls?
In Texas, a person may not wear apparel or a similar communicative device relating to a candidate, measure, or political party appearing on the ballot in the current election, but a person may wear such apparel relating to a candidate, measure, or political party that does NOT appear on the ballot in the current election.
In other words, if you are wearing a hat, t-shirt, or button relating to a candidate, measure or political party that does not appear on the ballot in the current election, you are not violating Texas law.
However, if you are wearing apparel relating to a candidate, measure, or political party on the ballot, a presiding judge has the ability to enforce the law within the 100-foot marker outside of the polling place entrance. You may be asked to remove or cover up your apparel before entering the building.

Hopkins County Voting Centers For March 1 Democratic & Republican Party Primary Elections
Less Than 10% Of Registered Voters In Hopkins County Cast Ballots During Early Voting
The early voting center in Hopkins County closed Friday with a total less than 10 percent of the county’s 24,310 registered voters casting ballots either in person or by mail. Republican and Democratic voters will have one more opportunity to select their choice from a list of candidates for state, national and local offices on Tuesday, March 1, 2022.

Early Voting Counts
A total of 1,331 early ballots were cast in the Republic Party Primary Election from Feb. 14-25, 2022, but the voting period did result in about 1 1/2 day less of early voting that was originally scheduled due to the icy weather conditions last week.
The Secretary of State’s Office notified election officials via email last Wednesday that they should match early voting hours with county hours, as a safety precaution for voters and election workers. The early voting center closed three hours early Wednesday, Feb. 23, 2022, as the frigid temperatures and precipitation began impacting Hopkins County and the County Judge made the decision to close all county offices a few hours at 2 p.m. as a safety precaution. A total of 71 voters cast ballots Feb. 23 in the Republican Primary and 2 voted in the Democratic Primary Feb. 23.

The early voting center was slated to be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 24, 2022. As the winter storm made some roadways slick from rain, sleet and even a little snow Wednesday, the county judge determined county offices would reopen at 10 a.m. Thursday. However, after evaluating the situation, a decision was made just after 8 a.m. Thursday for all county offices to remain closed. That meant the early voting center, located in the Precinct 2 Justice of the Peace courtroom, remained closed all day Thursday too due to the “public safety issue caused by the winter storm.”
The early voting center Friday followed that of county office, opening 1 hour later on Friday than the normal 8 a.m. start.
Another 380 voters cast ballots and one more mail ballot came in for the Republican Primary, for a total of 1,320 in-person votes and 11 mail ballots cast in Hopkins County. The 1,331 early votes cast in the Republican Party Primary account for only 5.48% of the registered voters casting ballots during early voting in that election.
Another 58 registered voters cast ballots Feb. 25, 2022, in the Democratic Party Primary. Overall, that makes 194 Hopkins County voters casting ballots in-person and 26 by mail, for a total of 220 Hopkins County ballots cast in the Democratic Primary from Feb. 14-25. That’s less than 1 percent of registered Hopkins County voters casting ballots in the Democratic Party Primary during the early voting period.
Cumulatively, that’s 1,551 Hopkins County voters or 6.38 percent of registered voters casting ballots either in-person or by mail during the early voting period for the March 1 party primary elections.
A total of 2,345 of the 23,190 registered voters in Hopkins County (10%) cast ballots during the early voting period in the party primary elections in February of 2020; 2,009 voted (8.66%) in the Republican Party Election and 336 voted (1.44%) in the Democratic Party Primary Election. Of those only two ballots were cast by mail in 2020, according to data tracked by the Secretary of State’s office.
The winners in the Primary will face the candidate elected by other parties during the November 2022 Election. If a runoff develops from the March 1 election, the runoff would be held in May, to determine which candidate’s name will be on the November ballot.
