David taught the sophomore masonry class the fundamentals of installing Stoneyard Natural Thin Stone Veneer. The class was able to work hands-on with the stone and assist with the process from keying and pointing the stone to cleaning the stone.

The Masonry and Tile Setting program at Shawsheen Valley Technical High School provides students with a history of the trade as well as exposure to a wide array of skills utilizing a variety of materials. The students even have opportunities to compete in statewide and national competitions. This year, one of the program’s junior class students is representing Massachusetts at the SkillsUSA Championships in Atlanta, Georgia.

Great students, great teachers, great school. Stoneyard is looking forward to working with Shawsheen Tech again in the future.
