The Humboldt County Office of Education (HCOE) Regional Occupational Program (ROP) Building
Trades program began its home construction focus in 1987. As far as we know, this was the first high
school home construction program in the state.
Over the course of time the construction program has built items for the McKinleyville High campus
(athletic field house), Community Sherriff substation, and worked for the Community Services District.
The students take great pride in having added to the community in a very concrete way. Several
graduates from the program over the years are either professional contractors or work in some
related aspect of the industry.
The HROP Arcitectural Design class designs the buildings, and they are then built by HROP Building
Trades students.

Instructor, Dave Enos, teaches both the Arcitectural Design and Building Trades classes. Under his
supervision, 13 homes and a Law Enforcement Facility have been designed and built.
One of the things we like best about McKinleyville, and why we have a program there, is the
supportive, welcoming community. We look forward to many more years of partnership with the
MCSD and the McKinleyville community.

The Green Technology House • 1245 Chelsea Way
A 96% efficient condensing hot water heater heats the domestic hot water
supply in addition to providing the energy for the system’s heat exchanger.
The heat exchanger transfers heat to the water flowing through manifolds
that circulate hot water through the home’s network of tubing, which in
turn heats the house. The downstairs area, each bedroom and the two
bathrooms have their own thermostat and can be controlled independent
of one another.
The Mechanical Room is contained in a centrally-located downstairs inhouse closet. Any system heat loss is captured in the home’s conditioned
space, minimizing waste-energy losses.
