We’re thrilled to unveil the fourth episode of our captivating documentary series, “From Bookwork to Blueprint: A High School Class Builds A Modular Home.” Filled with excitement and curiosity, this latest installment, titled “Students Visit Homes, Tackle Roofing,” delves deeper into the remarkable journey unfolding at Perry Central High School.
Our cameras are right there with the students as they dive into the world of manufactured housing. They’re stepping out of the classroom to get a firsthand look at how homes are built today. From factory floors to sales lots, students experience it all, seeing theory and practice come together in real-time.
At the heart of this episode is the students’ quest for knowledge as they take on the tough job of building a roof. With strong determination and help from experienced mentors, these young builders face the challenges of roofing head-on. Every swing of the hammer and precise cut shows they’re honing their building skills.
