My Project

Our classroom has a 3D printer, and students have been thrilled to dive into creating projects that combine art, science, and engineering. The addition of filament will allow us to bring a new level of creativity and professionalism to their designs! With filament, my students can produce items like trophies for school competitions, etc. This filament will give their work a polished, eye-catching finish, boosting their confidence and pride in their accomplishments among their classmates!

The skills they are learning through 3D printing—problem-solving, design thinking, and technological literacy—will prepare them for success in future careers.

Your support will ensure they have the resources they need to make their ideas shine.

Our students also want to create compliment pins! Supplying them with the resources to create these would help them spread the kindness and cheer they are hoping to!
