6 Baptist Hill High School seniors had an amazing opportunity to visit Cullum Mechanical, who are leaders in the mechanical contracting industry. Students participated in hands on learning activities and learned more about the mechanical, pluming, fabrication, HVAC, electrical, & refrigeration career paths and opportunities.

Students were very excited about the hands on opportunities. So excited some students applied for positions on the spot!
