Congratulations to our Makery Program

Congratulations to our Makery Program! Recently, Director Nykole Kent and Mr. Robert accepted an award for our Makery program here at iLEAD Lancaster, in recognition of an outstanding program in DESIGN THINKING.

  • The Lancaster Makery has been a cornerstone of  iLEAD Lancaster’s program. The Makery focuses on promoting innovation through design. Learners use the Makery to support the projects that they participate in. Each year,  learners in the makery participate in the 2×4 project — where they design a product using only a 2×4.
  • Learners in the Makery Design Tech program have also created video games, including the actual casing and the wiring to play multiple games.
  • A team of ambassadors from the Makery Design Tech program have done presentations for civic organizations. Local businesses have also donated materials and funds to redesign and organize the entire Makery, which will  enable more productivity.

For their Design Thinking and Project-Based Focus, iLEAD Schools was excited to present this award to Nykole Kent and Mr. Robert Hutson and the Makery of iLEAD Lancaster!
