Student Project Teaches Engineering Skills
Cobb Business Journal
McCarthy Building Companies is working with Marietta High School teachers and students to build a first of its kind, self-sustaining lab. The Haiti Container Project reimagined six large shipping container as a lab for research, food production and health care in areas of developing nations where resources are scarce. Marietta High School has a pre-engineering program and uses projects like this to get students excited about engineering, design and construction. McCarthy and its partners have donated about $50,000 of labor and material to the project.
