This two-year program is currently held at Adams High School and provides dual high school and college credits. Students in this program produce drawings to be used as visual guidelines for the construction of new buildings or additions to existing ones. Students in an architectural drafting program learn construction practices, and how to use Computer-Aided Drafting (CAD) (software that produces precise 2D drawings as well as 3D models) as well as freehand drawing techniques.
