My Project

When our Kg-5th grade students were surveyed of what activities in STEAM they wished they could have completed more within the school year, an overwhelming amount stated painting! We would love to stock up on painting gear for our student engineering processes.

We will plan on adding the paint design into our Engineering Design Process when creating prototypes within our Special Area classes that continuously rotate 700 students Monday through Friday into their 45 minutes STEAM time.

By donating to this project, our students will have plenty of paint and design practices to create working pieces of art as they demonstrate their building process!
