CCSHS At the Rochester Careers in Construction Day

Twenty of Churchville-Chili’s eleventh and twelfth grade students journeyed to the Monroe County Fleet Center in October to explore the exciting career options available in the construction industry. In addition to meeting industry leaders and potential employers, motivated participants learned about apprenticeship opportunities and college and trade programs. The annual Careers in Construction Day event, a joint effort between Rochester Careers in Construction, Inc. and Monroe County, area schools, employers and unions, uses an interactive, hands-on experience to introduce students to a variety of trades, including architecture, engineering, carpentry, electrical, plumbing, masonry and many more. Students were able to speak with experts, view demonstrations and equipment trials and visit with employers.
