High School Student Learn to Build a House

Thomas Edison School of Technology Lets Students Build Entire Home
A total of 320 Montgomery County Public School students from Thomas Edison High School of Technology spent part of the past two years designing and building this house which is expected to go on the market in about a month.

The students studied and did hands-on work in their specific field, including architecture, electricity, carpentry, plumbing and masonry. The two-year program enables students to work on the house for half their school day and then return to their various high schools throughout the county the other half of their school day.
