JHS students in Rhys South’s Construction Technology class are building a playhouse for preschool children at the Johnston Early Learning Academy! They started last week and will finish before the end of the school year. Skills learned in the process include traditional house framing and roofing. They will also be spray painting the playhouse. Our Building and Grounds Department will move it from JHS to JELA when it’s done! ![Man construction worker ♂️](https://s3.amazonaws.com/ps-feeds-production/inline_images_1715613676837-1715613676837.png) ![Hammer](https://s3.amazonaws.com/ps-feeds-production/inline_images_1715613676894-1715613676894.png) ![House building](https://s3.amazonaws.com/ps-feeds-production/inline_images_1715613676878-1715613676878.png) |
