Please help stock our makerspace lab in discovery class this year that will contain STEAM materials to encourage our students to create, think, collaborate, and solve problems! Our lab has items, such as Legos, Kinex, and glue, but we could use some help restocking some supplies. Please send the item listed below to school with your child. We would greatly appreciate it!
