Eleven Durham School students in the Construction Management Program attended the Kansas City Contractor’s Expo and Academies October 5th and 6th. Management Academy classes featured topics covering construction law, mobile technology, insurance, building quality and more! Thanks to the generosity of JE Dunn, field trip host, participants also had the opportunity to visit the construction site of Two Light Tower, a residential and commercial building in the Power and Light District. This building will include 18 floors housing 300 residential units on top of six stories of parking and commercial space.

This is the 3rd Annual Kansas City Contractors Expo, Durham School students have attended the event for all three years. It has proven to be a favorable experience for students to attend to gain knowledge and network with industry professionals in preparation for their upcoming careers.
