My Students

My students are such a sweet, resourceful and helpful group of kids. They are always looking to laugh and enjoy spending time together. They are helpful to their classmates and me as an educator. I really enjoy seeing them come out of their shells as they get to know each other and their teammates better.

My Project

As our students work to create a robot for a state and national competition, this will allow our students to create custom built add ons for our robot and teach them the skills to operate and use a 3D Printer, a marketable skill as they move forward in their careers.

This printer will be used year after year for our Tech Challenge team as they continue to build and customize robots to meet the unique competition challenges for that year.

In the spirit of "Coopertition", we will allow other teams in our practice space to use the printer if needed, so other schools may benefit as well.
