Oak Middle School Makerspace

The school makerspace is made up of both the Design Lab classroom and the adjacent computer lab. It is a place where students are encouraged to design and create meaningful work.
With a lot of help from the Colonial Fund and some educational grants, the makerspace has been updated with a laser cutter, vinyl cutter, five 3D printers, woodworking tools, and numerous other tools and materials.

2018

The Colonial Fund raised over $12,000 to update the new Design Lab! They provided two Prusa MK3S 3D printers, a Boss 1420 laser cutter, LittleBits Pro Library, Cricut Maker vinyl cutter, new woodworking tools, and so much more! Our makerspace would not be possible without this initial investment!

2019

Mr. Mularella received a $3,900 STEM grant from the Toshiba American Foundation! We were able to buy three more 3D printer kits, a water chiller for the laser cutter, and numerous other materials.

2020

Mr. Mularella received a $5,000 Student Success Grant from the NEA Foundation!
We used this money to purchase micro:bit classroom kits and a variety of other coding accessories. Students will use these microcontrollers as part of our physical computing curriculum.
