Students are starting to create their own projects using the GlowForge laser cutters in the new middle school Design Lab. In the true spirit of STEAM, this process is a blend of art and technology. Students must brainstorm an idea, create a digital work of art, and then work with the instructor to adjust laser settings to realize their vision.
Reminder: Tonight at 5:30 PM in the FHUMHS Cafeteria. Please join us for our last of three meetings! Hope to see you there!
