Developing a Maker Experience

Student Maker learning experiences are rooted in the design thinking process. We provide students with access to unique tools and capacities to develop ideas, create prototypes and test ideas. This process has allowed our teachers and students to dive deeper into how they solve problems and gain exposure to current and emerging technologies.
