Who We Are

Make! Create! Innovate!

Make! Create! Innovate!

We are a Collaborative of Makerspaces located at the school sites of the Ravenswood City School District.

Ravenswood: Ravenswood City School District serves roughly 2000 students from transitional kindergarten through eighth grade in four schools including a dual immersion magnet academy.

 

Makerspace: Kids and adults love learning through making things. In our Makerspaces, students have the freedom to explore STEAM activities. We provide access to traditional toys and tools alongside cutting-edge technology, allowing kids to develop a variety of creative skills and hobbies. Our team of Tinkerers, Tinker-Teachers and volunteers open the Makerspaces during lunch and integrating workshops into regular class time.

 

Collaborative: Our team is made up of educators and volunteers. RMC is also a part of a nation-wide maker movement, and we strive to educate ourselves to provide the best possible learning experience to the students of RCSD by attending workshops and professional development, as well as staying connected to the online Maker community.
