The Construction Building Trades students are taking on projects around the school. Below are some smaller projects they've completed. They will soon take on larger projects in partnership with District Maintenance, Zach Bedford. Mr. Jim Nelson's Construction Building Trades class completes the projects during 6th and 7th periods as part of the Davis County High School Construction Program.
Librarian, Danna Cook, asked the students to create shelving for the end of her bookcases. Students were able to salvage wood from other furniture to match the finish of the book cases. Ms. Cook was very appreciative of their quick turnaround time.
The students also designed a casing for the cords that hang between the new monitors in the HS cafeteria. The students decided to use a mustang stencil with a wood burn technique and a gloss finish.
