About makeSHIFT 
This free, after-school program is most appropriate for 3rd-8th grade students interested in problem-solving, curiosity, and being part of a maker community. We aim to empower students to build their skills through activities that balance challenge and choice within an encouraging environment where students have a sense of ownership.

What to expect
Students will develop their perseverance, patience, flexible thinking, and collaboration. How will they do this? During makeSHIFT, students can choose to work on their own ongoing projects, explore the tools and materials available in the makerspace, and/or participate in a focused learning activity.
