Trey Johnson Builds Amazing Table at Dexter High School
June 20th 2018 by Dee Loflin
Dexter, Missouri - Mr. Rudd, Dexter High School, Industrial Arts Teacher has some pretty talented students. Their efforts aren't recognized as much as an athlete; however their talent is extraordinary.
Trey Johnson, a sophomore at DHS, built this table as one of his projects in his shop class. Students were able to take home their projects at the end of the school season.
Students can choose a project to complete and take home. They learn how to use woodworking tools along with power saws, and techniques to create these works of art.
