HIGHLIGHTING STUDENT CREATIVITY AND THEIR SHOP

CNC template work...

 We have begun the new semester here and the first order of business has been to cut out some templates on the Shopbot CNC for a couple of very popular projects.  In the past students have made a lot of Adirondack chairs but this semester we purchased some dxf files from Phil at The Barley Harvest to be used on the new machine.  Our first job turned out very nice (it's a new design for us, a Beach Chair in the Adirondack style).  The trick now is to set up the files so that students can machine individual parts from solid stock instead of a sheet of ply.

This is the finished product for the Beach Chair.  All of the parts machined very well and if you look closely you can see the tabs that were inserted in order to keep the parts from shifting during machining.  We can't wait to get one of these new chairs assembled and give it a nice long sit-down.

    Author work will vary within this blog.  It may be the Teacher taking a moment to show off what the students have created but this is truly here for the students to express themselves!

Where are we now?

Here at Grants Pass High School in Southern Oregon, we have a lot to be thankful for.  Recent years have seen a resurgence of interest in vocational education.  Yes, College is still a critical destination for our kids but the way in which students get there has evolved.  Do you think you want to be an Engineer?  An artist?  A Scientist?  All of these areas of study can benefit from the hands-on approach we offer in our modern shops.  What if College isn't in your immediate post high school plans?  Maybe you want to enter the trades or manufacturing.  We can help you get to almost any place you want to be.  This isn't your Fathers (or Mothers or Grandparents) shop class anymore.  We teach practical applications of Science, Technology Engineering Arts and Math and we do it with a hands-on ability that is unmatched in any School District in the area.  All of this in addition to having the opportunity to create some of the most amazing and beautiful work to come out of any High School we can think of.
