Makerspace
In the fall of 2014, the media center won a Bright Ideas grant from NC Electric Co-ops to develop a Media Center Makerspace. (#NCBrightIdeas)
Funds were used to purchase building sets from Knex, Hanz Innovations, and Little Bits. Every week there will be a challenge activity in the Makerspace.
In the fall of 2015, the media center won another Bright Ideas grant to continue the Makerspace activities. We purchased more building sets and Sphero Sprk robots.
