Plans may change, but progress doesn’t stop—sometimes it just takes a new direction

Andrew recently connected with students in Mr. Larsh’s class at San Juan High School, leading conversations around future goals, real-world advice, and hands-on construction career pathways. The focus was on helping students see what’s possible beyond the classroom.

It was great to return and see the progress these future builders have made since our last visit. Moments like these show the impact of staying engaged and supporting the next generation.

Today’s BITA Big Skills Live Build Day in Antioch High came together in a strong way.

Students in motion, hands on tools, learning in real time - the kind of work that speaks for itself.

Special thank you to Lennar for their continued support, and Rebuilding Together East Bay Network for being incredible partners in the building of the ADUs.

Meet the Class of 2026 – We proudly honor Mary Teichert, Chief Executive Officer of Teichert Inc., a fifth-generation family business founded in 1887 and a cornerstone of infrastructure across California and Western Nevada.

Under Mary’s leadership, Teichert continues its long-standing legacy of building essential infrastructure — from highways and airports to bridges, dams, levees, and thousands of miles of roads and subdivision lots. Having begun her career at Teichert as a Quality Assurance technician, Mary advanced through operational and executive leadership roles before becoming COO, President, and now CEO. Her commitment to excellence, stewardship, and industry advancement has earned her widespread respect and recognition among her peers.
