“They were really empowered by what they could do and make with the tools and the wood.”

Lindsay Calhoun, Art Teacher

“Working with the tools and measuring for their projects really reinforced math concepts in a hands-on way. You could see them applying fractions and measurement with real purpose.”

Melanie Fisher, Teacher

"This is something that the kids need. It's tactile. It's engaging. It applies engineering, carpentry, mathematics, geometry."
