My Project

Our makerspace and STEAM area is a place where students explore creativity, problem-solving, and hands-on learning. To keep this space vibrant and engaging, we need a variety of materials such as building tools, craft supplies, robotics kits, and more. These resources help students design, experiment, and bring their ideas to life. By supporting our makerspace, you're giving students the opportunity to develop critical thinking skills, collaborate with peers, and engage in meaningful, project-based learning that connects to real-world concepts across science, technology, engineering, art, and math through exciting, creative challenges.
