Suggested Grade Levels: 10 or 11 (36 weeks, 140 hours)
Building Trades I prepares students to erect, install, maintain, and repair buildings, and other structures using materials such as metal, wood, stone, brick, glass, concrete and composition substances. Students focus on developing skills in core safety and the masonry, carpentry, electricity, and plumbing professions.
As noted in Superintendent’s
Memo #106-10 (4-30-2010), this Career and Technical Education (CTE)
course must maintain a maximum pupil-to-teacher ratio of 20 students to
one teacher, due to safety regulations. The 2010-2012 biennial budget
waiver of the teacher-to-pupil ratio staffing requirement does not apply.
