Borough Hall Funds STEM Labs For PS 39

Borough Hall funded $350,000 for the creation of a new makerspace/STEM lab at P.S. 39. The office of Council Member David Carr also provided funding.

The work included an electrical upgrade, Promethean board, computers, new furniture, and new flooring.

During visit to the school, Borough President Vito Fossella saw first-hand look at the students in action as they used basic materials, including wooden blocks, cardboard, glue, and Legos to create 3D designs while integrating math and science.

We hope the new labs help grow their curiosity and encourage critical thinking that can be applied to everyday life and their future goals.
