Sartell High School will purchase cordless drills through the Tools for Schools, an educational project developed in 2004 by the Central Minnesota Builders Association. Through involvement with schools and educators, CMBA hopes to promote the benefits of working in the building industry as a career destination and understanding about the wide variety of jobs associated with building and selling a home, skill levels required, wages and benefits offered and career paths available. This year CMBA presented $10,000 to area high schools to enhance their building technology classes. Eleven area schools, including Sartell High School, submitted requests for funding from CMBA’s program.
