Sign up today to have your child participate in a hands on, creative, activity with Susan Picard on Mondays in the Mezzanine beginning on May 29th (May 22nd is a holiday.) These sessions will last one hour so we can have two different age groups participate, and may be scheduled for every other Monday depending on the number of participants and need to keep the size of the groups manageable. Parents are asked to pick up and drop off their children for each session. All parents and students are invited on May 15th at 2:30pm to come and see what it’s all about. From there we will create a schedule and let our future makers loose on the great STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) challenges that we have planned.
