Engineering students from Quibbletown Middle School visited with our Board of Education at their January meeting to discuss and demonstrate the innovative lessons and projects they are producing in class and as part of the school’s STEM Club!The presentation included a demonstration of a robot the students built, and students allowed the Board to examine pieces they conceived and created using the school’s 3D printer. While Board members examined the pieces, engineering teacher George Batalas had the 3D printer running in the Board Room to create another piece as the presentation was going on. Students also presented a slideshow and spoke in depth about lessons and concepts covered in Grades 6-8.
Board President Nancy Salgado-Cowan and Superintendent Erskine R. Glover presented the students with certificates for their commitment to their engineering studies and for sharing their talents with the Board. They were introduced and supported at the meeting by Quibbletown Principal William Gonzalez.
