My Project

I teach 6th grade Computer Science, but I also have the amazing opportunity to teach three different STEM after-school clubs. My students love to have their own “brand” and wanted to create their own logos for each of their clubs. Their designs were wonderful, but we did not have the means to transfer them onto t-shirts, hats, and other items.

Help us show off their love for their clubs!

We want the Cricut Joy Die Cutting Machine and accessories so that students can show their innovation, imagination and pride! I want my students to be able to showcase what they can create on their own.
