With the current construction boom in North Texas, a number of construction companies are having a difficult time finding skilled labor. But one school in Grand Prairie is doing their part to provide trained, motivated workers.
Mike Rowe, who has TV shows on the Discovery Channel and CNN, has lent his voice and his time to promote the value of skilled labor. He made a stop in Grand Prairie to encourage the students at Dubiski Career High School, a school that focuses on technical training.

If you doubt Rowe’s passion for technical training, just check out his Facebook post regarding the event, and the fact that skilled labor rarely gets mentioned as a viable educational alternative.
