Focus in class my man. I was lucky to have a mechanic dad who loves wood working. The stuff you learn in shop will help you in countless ways! It'll pay off big time in the future if you decide to make custom enclosures, or decide to keep big snakes that require large custom enclosures (burmese/retic/green anacondas/etc). Take advantage of having access to those tools.
If you (or anyone else) has build questions I would be happy to answer them. I've been building this style of enclosure since I was about 14-15 years old (when I got into keeping "big" snakes).
