Mr. Fleener's students created a house out of cardboard and a type of insulation of their choice. They insulated the walls and the ceiling with insulation. They also created "attic" space and insulated it as well. Owen Kremer and Aiden Bergfeld created a house that only lost 2 degrees of temperature in the time we left them outside.

Intro to Engineering Design classes just finished up a section on design engineering. They were challenged on designing/building roller coasters and designing dog/cat houses that will be donated later this spring. We also had the opportunity to go to Stevens Industries.
Huge thank you to Stevens Industries for welcoming our classes over so we could learn more about design engineering and autocad. We are very appreciative for the donation of lumber for our cat/dog house project.
