This is Norman Takeya. Building & Construction instructor with HCC's Construction Academy. He has a full line of shop classes at McKinley High School filled with the toughest kids on campus. Norm's mentoring the construction of a sustainable house powered by photovoltaic panels with his "senior project" students. He also holds a couple of ukulele-making classes in the evening for interested HCC faculty and staff. Busy guy. You would think he would cut back his curriculum because of Furlough Fridays but instead he's saying, "Eh, don't forget about me!"
No worry, Norm! We'll get you setup with a volunteer for your JA class. If you can work it into your curriculum with 17 less days this school year, JA will certainly support you and all the other teachers who are requesting our financial literacy lessons... we promise!
