My Students

Here at our K-12 school, students readily accept one another as they are. Their camaraderie impresses me daily and allows us to dive deep into authentic learning experiences. My students' exposure to opportunities is somewhat limited in our rural setting; and as their Industrial Arts, CAD, and Spanish teacher, I am eager to share as much of the world as I can. As a result, the students love new information and are filled with curiosity.

Students enjoy seeing their ideas come to life and whether we're in shop class or Spanish class we work diligently as a team to make that happen.

My Project

This project requests filament for 3D printers that actively work to bring students' ideas and designs to life. Due to Covid-19, our filament supply has ran lower than normal. When it's time for our students to return, they should have all the materials and resources for them to return to.

Students will use the filament to bring their reverse engineering challenges to life, to test their ability to operate a 3D printer, and to bring their own inventions to life.

Our CAD program runs 3D printers that were built by students. The printers are an open source design that orginated from a local university. Alumni students check in with how their printer is doing and are proud to be part of the story.

Now it's your turn to be part of our story. Help us replinish filament we've utilized for Covid-19 response and be ready for our innovative youth.
