Our Thinkering Studios are dedicated educational makerspaces designed to encourage the development of stamina and intrinsic motivation to stick to a task or problem that may not be solved easily or quickly. There are currently two Thinkering Studios on campus; one for our first and second grade students, and one for our third and fourth grade students.

Each Studio is organized into various zones such as: fabrication, computers, electrical engineering, and architecture. Each zone provides students with a variety of developmentally distinct and challenging activities while engaging them in creative problem-solving, discussion, imaginative thought, and collaboration - all skills that are critical to success in a global economy that is increasingly based on innovative and nimble thinking.
Students use these spaces for a variety of high and low-tech projects such as basic woodworking, circuitry, computer programming, 3D printing, and STEAM investigations. Each class begins with a Safety Meeting where safe and appropriate use of tools is demonstrated and practiced.
