Masonry

Students develop the basic skills to use both hand and power tools, as well as machinery and equipment, related to brick and block masonry construction. Students focus on problem-solving and employability skills while performing entry-level brick masonry tasks. In the second semester, students further refine and expand their skills in the use of hand and power tools, as well as machinery and equipment, to construct masonry wall systems typical of the 21st century. Successful and eligible students may interview for paid apprenticeship positions with local contractors at the end of the course. These positions can be held during a student’s senior year for work based learning elective credit.
