Most of my students are 8th graders. Our school is a k-8 school, so the 8th graders are getting ready to enter high school. My hope is to send them with skills and discipline that they will be able to carry on with in high school and beyond. My students need to learn some basic engineering principles which will help them in many fields no matter what they choose to pursue in the future. Almost half of our students earn a free/reduced lunch and many of them have socio/economic struggles that often affect their learning. Our school has limited funding so we need to reach out and ask for help. My students have so much potential with their creative and problem-solving minds, your support would be greatly appreciated.
