NPPD set up 11 Makerspace labs in the CMS library on 11/28. Mrs. Waugh's 4th block, 8th grade class was the first to try out the labs and it looked like a lot of fun! CMS will have the Makerspace labs available for student use until December 16th. We invite parents to stop by and check it out. I think that you will be amazed at the technology that students have the opportunity to work with.
Mrs. Kaus Receives $500 Grant for CMS Library Makerspace
