THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Construction of an agricultural welding shop extension to accommodate growing student enrollment and expand CTE programs.
The project aims to separate wood and metal shops, add an outdoor work area, and potentially include a building trades program. The district is seeking reimbursement through a NEFA allotment (estimated $70,000 back on a $100,000 project) and has a $200,000 JET grant for new equipment. The building will be a metal shell with concrete, with electrical and plumbing work to be done in-house or by students where possible. The chosen bid is from East Texas Welding and Fencing LLC.
