Con-Tech, Inc. and Salem-Keizer Public Schools broke ground on a new house to be built by McKay High School and South Salem High School students. The house is located at 519 24th St. NE in Salem.
The project is part of a construction technology program between Salem-Keizer Public Schools’ career-technical education department and Con-Tech Inc., a private non-profit organization dedicated to supporting construction technology education in the district. Students will be supervised by a licensed and bonded Oregon contractor and the class instructor. After it is completed, the home will be sold to the public. See the article by the Statesman Journal.
