Manteno PTO

Manteno Elementary School Makerspace
 
Parents and Community Members,
 
We have created our vision at Manteno Elementary School creating a space dedicated to STEAM (Science Technology Engineering Arts and Math) and provide students with opportunities to work collaboratively, experiment, tinker, explore through inquiry, and problem-solve.  Within the space, we incorporate a range of materials from low-tech arts and crafts to high-tech software and electronics for students of all grade levels.  

Working with our PTO
Over the years, our PTO has been gracious in supporting our classrooms and students.  They have provided items such as: novels, STEM bin activities, Makerspace room activities, and flexible seating options.  
Please help us with keeping our Makerspace room functioning.  We are need of the following materials:
  1. Art materials
  2. Building Stations (i.e. Legos, K’Nex, Blocks, Cardboard, and various other materials)
  3. Tech and Engineering Stations (i.e. Little Bits, Spheros, coding tools, Chromebooks/tablets)
 
Our list of ideas is always evolving.   Any support is welcomed and appreciated! We hope the Makerspace creates a community of “makers” at Manteno Elementary. Thank you for your support - it is what makes Manteno Elementary School  such an amazing place!

Please continue to send your empty or unused toner and ink cartridges to the school office.  We recycle them and earn money to provide additional funds for classroom supplies.  If you would like us to pick your cartridges up, email Sue at scasa888@yahoo.com. ​​
