My Project

Here at our school we are striving for students to find themselves, find hobbies, and allow them to put their creations to life.

We had a Makerspace that became outdated and was taken down when Covid lockdown occurred.

When students were able to return back to school, the Makerspace failed to get back up and running due to the outdated technology.

Being the new IT Manager of this amazing school, my vision is to update the Library Tech Center to have newer ways to expand the next generations knowledge by establishing the makerspace with new equipment that can best help students showcase their skills and hard work. With the Makerspace, we aim to educate students on new technology and create an encouraging environment for students to explore new hobbies.
