Students from Cross High's building construction program recently competed in the 2024 Build-A-Shed competition, held March 13 at Exchange Park in Ladson.
Cross High was one of six teams, and two BCSD schools, that competed in the competition, made possible with a partnership between the Charleston Chamber of Commerce and ABC Carolinas, a commercial construction association.
Student teams planned and built the sheds under the guidance of their teachers and the contractors, and the sheds were judged on the criteria of structural completeness, safety, and technical elements.
It was a major opportunity for students to work with professionals in the field of building construction, and get some hands-on experience outside the classroom.
Cross High's building construction program is led by Brian McClellan.
