My Students

"It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." --Albus Dumbledore

I believe that every student can be whatever they want to be if they just believe in themselves and work hard to achieve their dreams.

My students come from a variety of cultures. They love to do hands-on projects to learn all they can about the world and how things work.

My Project

I teach technology and engineering classes. In spite of the challenges brought on because of Covid-19, these items will allow my students to continue using the engineering design process to create awesome things.

Students will be able to create Lego robots as well as RC cars, boats, and planes.

They will be designing many of the components using Tinkercad and then printed out on our 3D printers.

With these items, students will be able to develop skills in electrical and mechanical engineering. They will be tackling real-world challenges in fun and exciting ways.
