My Students

My school is a low-income school with around 50% of all students being on free or reduced lunch. My group of students range from advanced STEM ability to resource and special education. They are hard-working, challenging, and diverse students who just need a little boost and a glimpse at a different world. My particular demographic for this project are those students that don't really fit in anywhere else and need a group with similar interests, talents, and hobbies. I love their enthusiasm and creativity!

My Project

3D printers are the most in-demand technology among my students these days!

We would like to use our requested FlashForge Finder 3D printer and printer filaments to make games, game pieces, miniatures, classroom objects, 3-D printer upgrades, toys, jewelry, and a wide variety of objects for our Dungeons and Dragons Discovery class.

We would love to have the opportunity to pursue our creative efforts and to build many 3-D printed items. Students love being able to decide on what gets printed, how it will be printed, and some have even designed their own prints using 3-D printing design software.

Please help us to fuel their fire!
