The morning BY Construction Training program at Highlander Park recently concluded with a hiring fair, giving students the opportunity to connect face-to-face with local employers who are actively seeking skilled and dependable workers.
The hiring fair served as an important bridge between training and employment. Students were able to meet potential employers, learn about available career opportunities, make valuable professional connections, and take steps toward securing employment in the construction industry.
For these students, completing the training is only the beginning. The connections made during the hiring fair could lead to interviews, job offers, and the start of rewarding careers in construction.

The afternoon BY Construction class recently put their skills into action through hands-on training focused on building new outdoor benches! Students worked together to measure, assemble, and complete the benches while applying the construction skills they have developed throughout the course.
The finished benches were donated to Warren Adult and Continuing Education and will be added to the outdoor space for students, staff, and visitors to enjoy. The project gave students valuable real-world experience while also allowing them to leave a lasting contribution to the Warren ACE community!

Students in the BY Construction classes at Highlander Park recently had the opportunity to take their learning beyond the classroom through Work Experience (WEX) training. This allowed students to put their construction skills into practice while gaining valuable, hands-on experience in a real-world work environment.
Through WEX, students strengthened their technical skills while also developing important workplace habits such as teamwork, communication, problem-solving, and professionalism. Experiences like these help students connect classroom instruction to career opportunities and build confidence as they prepare to enter the construction industry.
A special thank you to Home Repairs for Good for partnering with BY and providing students with this meaningful opportunity to learn, work, and grow.

Preparing for the HiSETⓇ Math exam is more engaging when learning includes a little friendly competition. Students in Ms. Marcia's class recently practiced solving proportions by combining Kahoot! questions with a game of Jenga. Students raced to answer each Kahoot! question. The first student to answer correctly earned the opportunity to move a piece of the Jenga tower and carefully add it to the top without sending the tower tumbling!
The activity combined HiSETⓇ math preparation, problem-solving, and plenty of excitement while giving students extra practice with an important math skill. The activity turned HiSETⓇ math practice into an engaging challenge that kept students learning, thinking, and having fun along the way.
