Students from the Copper Country ISD–CTE Construction Tech program in Baraga County are pictured at their new home build site in L’Anse at 103 Spruce Street. This project, along with a sister build in Hancock, is part of a collaborative partnership with InvestUP’s BuildUP initiative. At a recent advisory committee meeting, InvestUP CEO Marty Fittante raised the program’s expansion, noting, “The Copper Country ISD’s… first success story… was a phenomenal way to get things started off. Now we have CTE home builds happening in Hancock and L’Anse.” The committee also discussed new technology used on the job sites to streamline communication. The CTE Construction Tech program provides this hands-on experience for students from Baraga County high schools at the L’Anse site and serves students from Houghton and Keweenaw counties at the Hancock site.
