Thanks to the generous support of the South Central Iowa Community Foundation, which awarded us a grant of $13,118.87, and an amazing $10,000 contribution from RPP Region 14, Mount Ayr Community Schools’ CTE department is ready to make big things happen!
Our Industrial Arts, Agriculture, and Business departments are excited to put these funds to use and create incredible learning opportunities for our students. We can’t wait to see what’s next! Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible.
Items this machine can create:
Engrave on leather (still learning!)
Wood projects
Personalized cups (still learning!)

The Glowforge was our first addition to our laser engraving program. We’ve created some pretty awesome projects with it! This machine allows us to engrave on materials such as wood and plastic, though it does have limitations on the size and type of projects it can handle.
Most of our larger projects have now been moved to the Boss Laser Engraver, while the Glowforge’s main purpose will be for smaller projects and our custom Ritchey Ear Tags.
