From the shop to the neighborhood! 🔨

Our Construction Science students at GWAMA recently finished a special project for Mission Waco’s Creekside Village, and today, representatives from the class got to hand-deliver the final products.

It was an honor to work on this project, and we’re so grateful to Diane Walters and Lochridge-Priest for helping us coordinate the delivery. Seeing our students' work out in the "real world" is what it’s all about!
