WMHS students in grades 11-12 participated in a carpentry industry tour at North Atlantic Corp. (NAC) in Somerset on November 12. NAC is a leading manufacturer, distributor, and assembler of high-quality building products, specializing in custom and stock doors, stair systems, windows, and millwork, and they employ a full-time crew of about 300 people at their Somerset headquarters. This event exposes students to a wide variety of career paths under one roof, ranging from skilled trades (cabinetmaking, welding, carpentry) to STEM and logistics roles (robotics technicians, CAD drafters, supply chain management). Students toured the facility to view a behind-the-scenes look at how modern industrial automation blends with traditional craftsmanship, while making connections with industry professionals.
