Garrett High School Building Trades Project Home: January 2012

Wednesday, January 25, 2012

GHS Building Trades is officially "BIG" (25 students) What fun it has been over the past 3 1/2 years to see the program develop into what it is today. Who knows were it will go from here, UP I am sure! It seems like my students are in the class because they want to be there, that makes them hungry to learn ITS GREAT!! The start of this blog will hopefully let everyone keep up with the progress and remarkable work these young men and women (yes we have a lady) are doing. GHS really does not know what these students are capable of!!

VIdeos to Share!

Below you will find some recent videos of the work we have been doing on the project home. Enjoy!

Learn More About GHS Building Trades

My goal is to introduce each student to all of the processes (state standards) that are involved in building a home. If we do not do it ourself we work very close with the professionals that are involved. We stress the importance of responsibility, getting along with others, and acting as a professional while on the job site. We introduce students to the "World of Construction"; show them the different avenues that can lead them to becoming professionals in the field. Our students take GREAT pride in what they are doing, and what they accomplish. GHS Building Trades Students are very proud of what they do!
