Students in Mr. Levy's Woods and Welding class have been diligently drafting designs and executing plans as they fabricate end tables.
"It's been really fun to watch the kids with this project, many have gone a step above to create something special that is going to last a very long time." Mr. Levy said of his students' work.
Sophomore Levi Hemmersbach's table came from humble beginnings - upcycled scrap wood and metal bars from the shop. Levi sanded the boards repeatedly and extensively before beginning the epoxy process, and was so pleased with the final construction, he gifted the table to his mother.
For students in Woods and Welding, these tables are more than just a place to set things down, they stand as a testament to their progress as craftspeople. When students turn their plans into a sturdy reality, their self-concept and competency expands to meet and complete the next project.
