We’re probably the only high school that is teaching these skills with a real scale-type model; one that the students can work on and learn from, using their hands. We are teaching real-world skills with real-world tools, going standard as much as possible, so they’re learning basic carpentry, wiring and plumbing.
“It’s hard to describe how much the people at Hanna have done for me. I know that no matter where life takes me, I have people who believe in me.” – Chris, Hanna Residential Foster Youth
Looking back on my life and how things could have turned out very differently, it’s hard to believe how far I’ve come. Today, I am a 29-year-old combat engineer and drill sergeant in the U.S. Army. My journey hasn’t been easy, but I owe much of my success to a place that gave me a second chance when I needed it most: Hanna Center.
