Over the summer, Claire Davis, Class of 2024, came to the School to help Mr. Tiffin organize the Upper School makerspace. Her first task was to figure out how to store parts in a way that was accessible to students and faculty. Claire came up with the “Spare Parts Center,” a wall of storage bins labeled with their names, notes, a color coding system, and a level of item quality – usability, consumability, and prototype-ability. Her design empowers Maker students to use the correct materials throughout their projects’ designing, prototyping, and final stages. Claire added, “I enjoy organizing, and being able to organize one of my favorite places on campus was awesome. I’m happy I was able to help my fellow classmates to impact the way they do every project throughout the year.”
