Thank you Bryan Monk and Jose for joining me this morning at Blanson CTE High School. You taking time to speak with the 2023 Diesel Mechanics class was inspiring. Mr. Gerald Britt is doing a fantastic job with these students. Jose was a 2022 graduate from the same class who was hired by Monk JCB back in August 2022 and is continuing to show excellence performance in his position there and is continuing his 4 year college program in the evenings.

Visiting these classrooms and informing the students about the job opportunities available in the Heavy Civil Contractors industry is inspirational.

HCA is working with local High Schools that have trade programs to inform their students of the Heavy Civil Contractor career paths available in Houston. Yesterday, Jennifer Bernal with Houston Contractors Association arranged a field trip for Eisenhower High School, Mr. Carlile’s senior welding class. The students visited two of HCA’s contractors job sites. At both jobsites the students were educated on job positions available, how their welding skills could be used, and what jobs were being performed.

They visited a Millis Equipment job site (Parkland Village Section 49 Paving Project) and were given a tour by Mr. Cody Burgin, VP of Millis Equipment, and Mr. Chris’s Scott, Safety Director. Foreman Maico Sotto also answered questions during the tour. Next, Five Companies offered their conference room for lunch where HCA provided lunch for everyone. Steven Aranda, Vice President, Operations at Reytec Construction Resources and Jeff Heflin, P.E., Vice President of mc2 main lane showed the students plans of the job sites they were going to see. Aranda and Heflin then gave a tour of the 108 inch water line being installed along City Easements from Milner Rd. to Aldine Westfield. Reytec construction and mc2 main lane are part of Five Companies who was awarded this job by the City of Houston. It's one of the largest diameter waterlines being installed in an urban area in the country.

A big thank you to all who helped provide this amazing learning opportunity for the students of Eisenhower High School! 👏🏼
