CADILLAC — Aaliya Fauble, a student at Wexford-Missaukee Career Technical Center and Cadillac Innovation High School, is being recognized for completing a hands-on project that will help improve the efficiency and sustainability of the Wexford Sheriff’s Office radar trailer.
As part of her coursework and technical training, Aaliya designed and installed a solar panel system on the department’s radar trailer, helping provide reliable renewable power for the trailer’s operations while reducing the need for external charging and maintenance.
The project gave her an opportunity to apply real-world skills in electrical systems, renewable energy, troubleshooting, and project planning while directly benefiting the community.
The work also highlights the strong training provided through CTC’s Computers, Networking, and Electronics Technology program, which equips students with hands-on technical experience in electronics, wiring, diagnostics and emerging technologies. Programs like this help prepare students for careers in skilled trades, information technology, electronics and public service support roles.
“We are incredibly proud of Aaliya and the work she accomplished through this project,” said Deputy Wiers. “This is a great example of how career and technical education prepares students with practical skills while also creating meaningful partnerships within our community.”
The radar trailer is used by the Sheriff’s Office to promote traffic safety and encourage drivers to reduce speed in school zones, neighborhoods and other high-traffic areas. The addition of solar power will help keep the trailer operational for longer periods and more efficiently.
The collaboration highlights the value of partnerships between local agencies and career technical education programs, giving students valuable workforce experience while supporting community needs.
