Hands-on learning is the best kind of learning, just ask our future engineers

Turner Construction - the company responsible for the rebuilds at Albany High School and North Albany Middle School - moved their work from outside our buildings to inside the classroom!

On Friday, representatives worked with students in Christina Flaspohler’s class on a lab entitled The Sky’s the Limit. The seventh graders were tasked with building a structure as high as possible, that will hold up to a simulated earthquake, for the least amount of money (all the “building materials,” in this case straws and tape, were assigned monetary values).

The STEM project continues next Friday in the Career and Technical Education (CTE) class.
