My Project

The materials and supplies that I am requesting for my students already have a "home." In other words, I know exactly where everything will go. We just need your help in getting everything through our door! We will use these items to bring science, math, and woodworking to life! My students are so special as they are all working together to build a brighter future for each other and our community.

We will use the Benchtop Disc Sander and Kreg K4 Pocket Hole Jig do experiments, build new projects while we work on our skills.

Our program continues to grow and expand and we want to give the students the best chance they can.
