Students from three Appleton area high schools came together Monday to dedicate a new house they helped build, according to a story in Fox 11 News.

The Appleton Area School District partnered with Greater Fox Cities Habitat for Humanity to build it.The group worked with the school build instructor and got real-life job experience at an actual site.

Luke Schmid, Appleton West High School Senior, says,”It was an amazing experience to get hands-on work, especially since some of the kids in this class are going into the trades, and have a leg up on some of the other students who haven’t had the hands-on experience.”
