3d Printer Arrives!
The 3d printer from our Donor's Choose Grant has arrived and we are thrilled! Students are curious about how the machine works and want to know how to use it. We have printed several premade items to get the hang of things. We are learning to use the CAD software to create our own objects.
Thank you Donor's Choose for bringing this amazing piece of technology into our school. It is already impacting the students.
