January 3, 2019...MakerSpace is now in operation at Osbourn High School. MakerSpace is an innovation lab where students can use automation, such as 3D printers, laser cutters and CNC machines (computer-controlled machine tools), to create projects in wood, metal or plastics.

CTE and general education classes utilize the space during the school day while individual students may use the lab after school to work on a project. Training by tech teachers is available to guide instruction and safety tests are administered and passed prior to students using the various machines. 

The project for the month of December was a hardwood cheese cutting board and January's project is a custom CNC-carved sign for the new lab. Additionally, students used AutoCAD and the CNC router to make stage pieces for the school's holiday musical set.

Please visit the Osbourn High School CTE webpage for more CTE news.
