The Innovation Center prepares SVVSD students for successful Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) careers by partnering with industry to provide real world work experiences. The Center’s mission is to match highly-skilled students with business, research and development opportunities, fostering analytical and problem-solving skills, encouraging entrepreneurial ambitions, and creating mentorships with experts in the STEM fields. What better place than our SmartHomes for students to learn first-hand how technology is changing the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities?
Another group of Innovations Students toured the SmartHome last month. This group will use a final design challenge they are working on to benefit our residents with a specialized project.
Once again, many thanks to Imagine! ambassador extraordinaire Leona Stoecker for arranging this collaboration between Imagine! and SVVSD.
