STUDENT SUCCESS
North Charleston Elementary School & Liberty Hill STEM
We are proud of these young men!
Zyahire Montgomery-NCES, Tae-Sean Miller-NCES, and Ayden Gadsden-LH STEM. They participated in the Black History Month Aviation Heritiage- Legacy Heritage "Eye Above the Horizon" event at Joint Base Charleston The purpose of this event was to conduct character-based youth aviation programs that draw on the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen. The focus is STEM; airfield operations and career exploration. They even had flight lessons! It was great for them to participate in sessions facilitated by pilots and other aviation professionals who look like them. Check out the pics. They got to meet and interact with Dr. Eugene Richardson, an original Tuskegee Airmen.
West Ashley CAS
When Charleston County’s Economic Development department needed custom 3D printed centerpieces for their annual industry luncheon, Ms. Deborah Otap’s Makerspace students at West Ashley Center for Advanced Studies gladly accepted the challenge!
Ms. Otap and her students designed a variety of prototypes using the Charleston County Economic Development logo.
After a design was finalized, Ms. Otap and her students went into production mode to fill the 40 units ordered.
Students assisted in each step of the process and the project was completed ahead of schedule!
Thank you to Jay Kramer, Ashley Richardson, Jennifer Brown, Steve Dykes, and the whole Charleston County Economic Development team for this opportunity to empower students with real-world projects!
