Four Rivers Career Center held a sixth-grade BUILD days on Monday, February 9, when students from Augusta Elementary and Marthasville Elementary visited.  

Every sixth-grade student from the School District of Washington will have the chance to visit the Career Center to learn about the different programs and opportunities available, and also participate in activities.

The sixth-grade students learn about career and technical education programs and explore a variety of career options.

Current Career Center students lead the sixth-graders on tours, stopping in each program for hands-on, interactive projects and experiences throughout the day.

Each session lasts approximately 15 minutes. By the end of the visit, the sixth-grade students will spend time in each of the Career Center’s classrooms and shops.

Some of the activities include a spark plug challenge in automotive technology, a construction relay in building construction, operating a paint sprayer in collision repair, and using stethoscopes in health occupations.
