Hazen's new A & E Academy is up and running!
The A & E Academy in partnership with IBL and WBL teams has connected several students with Job shadowing and internship opportunities. Some examples are a student working with a blacksmith in East Hardwick, another student is experimenting with the laser printer at Spark, and Academy classes have participated in field trips to local farms, engaged guest speakers and explored the Spark maker-space.
