On May 22, the Redwood Regional Occupational Program Construction Technology celebrated the graduation of 19 Redwood students and three adult students. This program, co-sponsored by the Marin Builders Association and open to all students and adults, aims to provide participants with the construction skills needed to build a structure. Teacher Tom Eller, who has been running the program for years, uses hands-on training to educate participants on topics including green building practices, tool safety, framing, plumbing, electrical, roofing, blueprint reading and more. Together, the class builds tool sheds and accessory dwelling units. The graduation marked the great accomplishments of those who completed the one-semester course.
