Building Dreams: Northeast BC High School Students Get a Head Start in Career Pursuits
Like all students, Michael Templeton and Taggart Bougerolle are excited to head home to Chetwynd for their spring break. But these Grade 12 students are especially pumped as they’ll return from Dawson Creek proudly knowing they’ve built a house!
Yes, Templeton and Bougerolle helped construct a house as part of their carpentry program at Northern Lights College.
“It’s pretty awesome—I’ve learned how to build a house from foundation to roof. Honestly, that was a game changer because I really enjoyed the course I’m doing,” says Templeton.
