Pacific High School students in Intro to Wood class were highly engaged as they worked on their individual builds! 🪵
Through this process, students learned how to design, plan, measure, cut, and apply joinery skills while creating either a bench or a stool. They also practiced finishing techniques, including assembly and staining, to bring their projects to completion.
A strong sense of pride was evident in Mr. Miller’s class as students focused on craftsmanship and made each project their own! 👏

Their creativity led to many fun and memorable ideas! 💜
