Students and classes alike are really enjoying our makerspace, both during and after school. All students are welcome during Maker Time, an after school club on late bus days from 3:30-4:40. Be sure to sign up on the after school website to reserve your spot!

See below for some student creations and action shots of students at work!

Do you lose track of where storylines end between books released in a series? Check out bookseriesrecaps.com. Search your favorite title and it will give you a recap so you don't have to re-read the entire last book!
