Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

My middle school students are curious and driven learners who embrace hands-on STEM projects. With this project, we aim to fully equip our new Tech Lab with a DOBOT Conveyor Belt and Linear Rail. These tools will give students valuable, real-world experience in designing and programming robotics projects. By working together on these challenging tasks, they'll develop critical skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, and creativity.

Our goal is to cultivate a collaborative learning environment that encourages innovation and experimentation.

By fostering a passion for STEM, we're helping them grow into the creative thinkers and problem-solvers of tomorrow. This equipment will serve as a catalyst for their growth, enabling them to bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and practical applications while gaining confidence in their abilities.
