Drafting Students Work on Production Project for Local Firm
Several Drafting students in the 12th, 11th,and 10th grade are involved in a major production assignment for the Aerial Lift company. Based in Milford, Connecticut, Aerial Lift Inc. produces heavy duty, mechanized devices that are mounted on trucks to do a variety of tasks including trimming the high branches of trees.

As part of a three phase contract, students under the supervision of Department Head Gary Carlson and instructor Charles Haynes, will be converting all of the company's drawings into electronic versions using AutoCAD software. The students will be working with Aerial Lift's engineers who are located in Wisconsin. The challenging project will give students invaluable experience which will help prepare them for the real world of work when they graduate.
