3D Printing for the whole district!

The Montclair School district has undertaken the significant initiative of bringing 3D printing to ALL 11 schools (k-12).  The financial contributions of the Montclair BOE, Josh and Judy Weston, and the US Government (via Picatinny Arsenal) have made this possible. The first cohort of teachers number more than 25 and covers all grades and content area (core and "specials"). We are in our second year of this initiative and looking forward to adding a second cohort of teachers and more 3D printers.  

We continue to foster a successful relationship with Picatinny Arsenal and MakerBot and along with the ongoing support of the MPS, we are anticipating another successful year.

The initiative began in November 2015 and was spearheaded by Lynn English (Montclair High School) and Daniel Taylor (Buzz Aldrin Middle School).  In addition to their contributions, Lisa Gary, Dan Gerdes, and Kevin Sampson have been the integral keystones for the rollout of this initiative.  It is because of their expertise and experience with 3D printing that the district has thus far effectively and seamlessly delivered instruction and support to the first cohort of teachers.
