Welcome to the Viking House Website
The Viking House is a project house built by Forest Grove High School students each school-year. The homes meet or exceed industry standards and are marketed and sold after completion to fund the next home. Students must complete several prerequisites to apply for the crew. Much is expected of these students, but they have unfailingly met the high demands of the market every year since 1975.
Some students go on to work in related trades and professions, and some merely want the challenge of completing such a big undertaking. They all bring an uncommon skill set and work ethic to the project, something we can all take pride in.
We invivte you to check out the Past Viking Houses through the tabs on the left. Please check back often for updates of the current project, and come judge the results of their work for yourself during our Open Houses each June.
