My Project

Our students are amazing, curious and SO creative! They are a diverse group culturally, economically and academically. We have been taking pictures of students working on their projects, projects and club activities on campus.

We will be utilizing this lens to capture student moments, projects and more in our makerspace.

Please help us update our camera system with a new lens for our new camera so we can get amazing photos of our incredible students doing amazing things in our makerspace. We have students from all over campus to come into the makerspace for tutorial, club activities and more!
