5/13/14 - Among the homes expected to be up for sale in the near future is an energy efficient unit largely constructed by Howell High School students. 46 building trades program students completed most of the work on the house in Conway Township. It will be shown in open house on June 7 and then be put up for sale. Students built the framework, porch and roof, attached siding, and finished the ranch's central bathroom, while occasionally working with professionals on the project. Students have built several houses in recent years, including a 4,200-square-foot home last year in Marion Township. This year's house is 1,545 square feet. The program receives support from the nonprofit Howell Education Foundation. Proceeds traditionally go back to the foundation for future projects. (JK)
