Classes to Build and Grow

By: Jim Norton, Industrial Arts Teacher
There is a new kid (Department) on the block this school year at GAA. The Industrial Arts program is off to an impressive start. We have a total of 15 students in the classes. The first semester we are offering Woodworking to two different classes. We will be focusing on different building skills. Some of the projects will include building a birdhouse, different types of feeders, as well as the possibility of building a small utility building. Second semester we will be offering a class in Scientific Gardening. This will give the students the opportunity to get outside, to work with different types of plants as well as learn how different types of soil affect the plant growth.
We would like to invite you out to the Industrial Arts house to see some of the exciting projects that are being accomplished. We would also like to invite you to become a part of making this program a success. We need your support; it can come in the form of donating equipment, tools, or money. Thank you for considering what you can do to be a part of this new venture.
