Local union members from the North Atlantic States Regional Council of Carpenters introduced the students to the basics of carpentry at the union’s facility. The lessons included building roofs, drilling and putting projects together. “Right now, we’re doing a little bit of building roofs, like the triangle, roofing, a little bit of drilling, and putting it all together,” said Eden Louis, a junior at Vertus High School. The carpentry lessons are set to continue through the rest of the week, with students working on projects Tuesday, Thursday and Friday.
