Periods 1-3 Industrial Tech
Industrial Technology – This is a year long class that meets every other day. This is an exploratory class that will introduce students to a variety of “hands-on” experiences in a shop environment. The three major units that are covered are: Unit #1 – Drafting & Design which includes: ruler reading, drafting, intro to hand and power tools, and two take home projects, a small coat rack and a small CO2 powered race car. Unit #2 – Metals which includes: intro to Wire feed welding, intro to Plasma cutting and a take home project, a metal candle holder. Unit #3 – Computer Aided Design (CAD) which includes: intro into computer aided design using a drawing program on the computers here at HMS and two take home projects, a light switch cover and a clock. There will be a project fee of $20.00 to cover the cost of materials for the class. Scholarships are available if a student is unable to pay the fee. If a student chooses to take both the Industrial Tech class (Per. 1, 2 or 3) and the Industrial Tech Project class (Per. 5 or 6) the total cost for both classes would be $30.
