Fostering Tomorrow’s STEM Leaders

SHP’s Executive Vice-President and COO, David Slater sitting down to discuss STEM programs with the students from VCHS.

Signal Hill Petroleum is proud to be a contributing member to the growth and development of America’s STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) students. We strongly believe in encouraging and supporting our youth in the pursuit of their passions and hopefully careers in STEM industries.

Last week, SHP hosted the Valley Christian High School (VCHS) Robotics Team to learn more about their program, goals and mission. Our staff was impressed by the dedication and the complexity of their plans for the upcoming competition. The students gave SHP’s Executive Vice-President and COO, David Slater, a presentation on the robot’s development, their strategic plan for the competition and how their decisions were made as a team. As a result, Slater was not only impressed by the students, but furthermore explained how the knowledge and experience they are gaining now will be extremely beneficial and directly relatable to the oil and gas industry in the future.

SHP would like to wish the VCHS Robotics Team good luck in their upcoming competitions. We know they are going to do great, but more importantly we know the skills they are building today are going to benefit them in the future.
