During the 2014-15 school year, Lenoir City Schools began transitioning their media centers and computer labs to Makerspaces with the mission to guide students from play to purpose by harnessing student-driven creativity, innovation, and collaboration.

Our Media Specialists and STEM teachers began this journey with two important beliefs: First, Makerspaces should be unique to the culture of their individual schools. Second, our students need opportunities to continue being challenged as they move through our school system, especially in areas where their budding interests lie.
