Representatives from the United Brotherhood of Carpenters spoke to my students on Friday morning about their craft and the opportunities it could create for them. The students asked questions and gathered important information to help guide them in a possible future career pathway. Thank you so much to Joshua Robertson, Pete Koester, and Houston Kirby for taking time out of your busy schedules for my students!
