🧱Industry experts are in the building. Our Masonry juniors and seniors had the chance to hear from Matt Aberl with Bricklayers & Allied Craftworkers Local 23. Matt gave students a clear look at what a career in masonry can offer, covering daily work, union opportunities, fringe benefits, and the steps to get started.
Big thank you to Matt - and to all visiting industry partners for investing time in our students and showing them what’s possible in the skilled trades. Real skills. Real knowledge. Real-world success.
