This program concentrates on craftsmanship in the areas of woodworking and carpentry. In year one, students will continue to develop machine techniques as they construct various projects including cabinets, tables, and finish carpentry construction applications. During year two, students continue to develop machine techniques as they construct individual projects which will be developed by the student and teacher together. During both years, students will be exposed to home building concepts and techniques including: framing, flooring, trim, roofing, and other aspects of residential types of building projects. Work-based learning experiences will be provided during both years to allow students to gain understanding of the various opportunities for future employment in a carpentry career. In addition, students will learn teamwork, budgeting, purchasing, and estimating to prepare for careers in contracting. This experience has direct links to the local union apprenticeship programs, DMACC and other training programs after graduating from high school.
