Meet: Jessi Arriola
Vale High School, grade 12
Class: Construction II/III
Why I’m taking this class: I decided to take this class because I enjoy building and putting things together. It also teaches you valuable life skills like how to read a tape measure.
What I like about this class: I like that we are taught how to do everything that we might run across. We get to build big projects as a class and we also have time to work on our own projects that we want to build.
What the community should know: Construction is a fun, hands-on learning environment that I really enjoy.
My future dream: I hope to graduate, go to college to get a degree in bio-medical engineering, and do small construction projects in my free time.
