The Construction and Design Academy prepares students for post-secondary education and employment through hands-on instruction in the various skilled trades of the construction industry. Here at John F. Kennedy High School, we specialize in the skilled trade of masonry. Our local business partners provide in-class and on-the-job training through apprenticeships and internships. Construction Academy students graduate prepared for the workforce with multiple NCEER credentials and their OSHA 10-hour certification. Additionally, Engineering and Architecture candidates get hands-on construction experience that moves them ahead of their college peers.
