With access to this technology, students will be able to turn their creative ideas into real, tangible objects—bringing lessons to life across multiple subjects. They will gain valuable hands-on experience in design thinking, problem-solving, and STEM skills that prepare them for future careers in technology and engineering. Beyond academics, the 3D printer will help build confidence and collaboration as students work together to prototype models, create assistive tools, and personalize learning materials.

Seeing their team name and logo printed on the shirts gave them a sense of pride and belonging. At our recent robotics showcase, they wore their shirts while presenting their autonomous vehicle prototypes, and their confidence was truly inspiring. The shirts helped them feel like a team and present their work with professionalism.\r\n\r\nAs we move forward, our students are taking on a new challenge: building and programming robotic arms to complete precise tasks.
