Wednesday, May 5, 2021, was deemed Fab Lab Day by the state of Wisconsin. The school district is pleased to announce that it has received a Fab Lab grant from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC). The WEDC will grant $13,000 to Belleville High School, which will invest $6,500 of its own funds as part of this matching grant. This will allow the STEAM (Science-Technology-Engineering-and-Math) Lab to add four Glowforge Laser cutters/engravers to add precise subtractive manufacturing equipment to create unique custom projects.
The School District would like to thank Sam Rikkers, the Deputy Secretary and Chief Operating Officer for WEDC, for visiting Belleville to announce the statewide grant release. Congratulations to Mr. Neumann and Mrs. Schmitz for their hard work and tenacity in pursuing these grant funds that will quickly impact student learning.
