Think these seniors in the Construction Academy at Whitmer High School will get nice gifts for Christmas? They should, because they've built Santa a house, which will be used by the Jolly Old Elf at Levis Commons in Perrysburg during the holidays. The house is collapsible for easy storage, where it will await use next year. They are, all from left: kneeling, Brandon Capron, James Keller, John Emch, Josh Frank, and Zach Cantrell; standing, Miles Ellis, Mike Cherry, Alex Connelly, Ashlee Fisher, John Fischer, Keith Smith, and teacher Phil Kraus; in window, first row, Shawn Wingate and Mike King, and back row, Steve Schneider, and Tyler Anderson.
