This new class is to prepare students to be engineers. As in most high school classes, the information you learn is not as important as how you learn to learn. We will stress process and self-starting, research and resources, communication and fun. This class will consist of the things I was blind-sided by when I got to Engineering school. My goal is to give you a taste of it so you can begin college with a head start!
