Be sure to check out these two projects that were recently completed: first, the upper playground handball wall has a really cool mural; second, there is a new measurement Panther painted on the east wall outside the cafeteria so you can take pictures of your child next to the Panther as they grow. Pictures are included.

There are 250 students building projects in the Makerspace/STEAM lab every week. The kids use all sorts of supplies to tackle the different engineering challenges. Bins will be placed outside of the MakerSpace classroom and in front of the office for your donations. See attached file for a list of "trash" needed. Makerspace is funded by generous donations from MBEF and PTA.
