Future-Ready Raiders: Students cut the ribbon on new technology wing at Johanna Perrin
A new chapter of of technology education begins at Johanna Perrin Middle School as students take their first classes in the school’s new Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) wing! The new spaces are the culmination of years of design, collaboration and construction as part of the voter-approved Fairport Forward 2019 Capital Improvement Project.
The STEM wing features three flexible classrooms with “garage door” separations that allow freedom of movement between classes and a central collaboration space. Mobile workstations, adjustable seating and in-room storage give students and staff an opportunity to use the classrooms as adaptable “maker spaces.”
The classrooms are designed with ample room for traditional machining and woodworking equipment, and feature a state-of-the-art dust collection system.
