My Project

One of our school's most impactful initiatives is our Lunchtime STEAM program hosted in our Library Media Lab. This program offers a safe and inclusive space and combines fun and engaging activities with important lessons about empathy, resilience, and teamwork. The students in this program are passionate about STEM education and making a positive impact in our community.

Through 3D printing projects, our STEM students aim to learn how to design and create assistive technology using 3D printers.

We are eager to learn about the different types of assistive technology that can be created, such as tactile learning aids for students with dyslexia, fidget toys for students with ADHD, and prosthetic aids for students with physical disabilities.

With your generous support, we will be able to purchase the 3D printer filaments necessary to create prototypes of our designs. We believe that our project has the potential to make a real difference in the lives of students with disabilities. You will not only be helping us achieve our goals but also contributing to a more inclusive and accessible future for everyone.
