WHITELAND — A new program at Whiteland Community High School is hoping to fill a need in the construction industry. The Clark-Pleasant Community School Corporation and the Howard Companies Construction Firm announced a partnership to create a new civil construction pathway program. It will equip Whiteland Community High School students with the skills and credentials necessary to be employable and ready to join the workforce or continue their certifications upon graduation.
High school students construct homes and build resumesBrianna Mercdnull is a junior and says she feels the same way. 'It runs in my family, my entire family does construction and concrete, all that. I’ve worked with them in the past and I enjoy it,' Mercdnull said. In the program, students will get the skills and credentials they need to be employable after graduation.
