Carpentry Tools Prepare Questa Students for Professional Successful

Rural school districts across the Mountain West have always realized the value of career and technical education, but in recent years, there’s been a renewed emphasis on trade skills in the Questa School District. One example of this district priority is Questa’s high school carpentry classes, which provide hands-on learning opportunities through projects that give back to the community while developing the skills students need to be workforce-ready upon graduation. The only problem? The program lacked the proper tools to provide students with the most up-to-date training. So, the instructor contacted LOR for help purchasing the missing equipment.

With LOR’s funding, the district secured a miter saw, a planer, a table saw, and all the accessories needed to maximize students’ carpentry education and expertise.
