We’re excited to announce we’ve expanded the program to add Grades 2-3 so we’ll be running two different age groups concurrently.

Grades 2-3 will explore what it means to be an engineer, learn what types of engineer they can be, and build fun, creative engineering projects. Then they’ll look at the 7 wonders of the world in new ways.

Grades 4-7 will undertake some structural engineering with bridges, and then have an introduction to microcontrollers.
