The competition brings together hundreds of high school students from across East Tennessee, providing them with a platform to demonstrate their skills in carpentry, plumbing, and electrical work. This event underscores the importance of skilled trades and instills a sense of pride and accomplishment in the participants.
The 2025 BXTN High School Construction Trades Competition will feature teams from high schools in East TN, vying in Carpentry, Plumbing, and Electrical trades. This year, there are two competition categories. The School Team Division highlights students from each school across all three trades, while the Open Division fosters collaboration and competition among teams from different schools, mirroring real-world scenarios.
