Creative Engineering: The Factory at MMS
The Factory at Mount Madonna School (MMS) is a recently re-designated classroom space on the upper campus that students are utilizing for an array of creative projects. Resources include a state-of-the-art 3D printer, Arduino input/output sensors, LilyPad sewable circuits, a full complement of Snap Circuits education kits, soldering irons, ample motors, LEDs, switches and power supplies. There is enough space for up to three classes at a time to store ongoing engineering projects.

During the interview and in subsequent communication, a connection was formed, resulting in Ms. Kelly’s being offered the change to participate in this amazing leadership program!
