Slaton wanted a state of the art facility to replace its existing dark and cramped career training space. The new 11,000 sq. ft. building completed in 2020 is bright, modern, and spacious with purpose-built shops for woodworking and welding, three classrooms, and a room for displaying the district's FFA banner awards.

A dedicated vacuum system connects to the power tools in the wood shop. Retractable power and compressed air drops are kept out of the way until needed, and an overhead door accommodates bulky materials and equipment.
