Welcome back to the new school year. I am excited about what is in store for this year. 7th grade Mechanical Drawing will continue to build on past success with minor but more fun changes coming your way. The 8th grade Exploring Industrial Technology class will have more hands on projects. The Fundamentals of Drafting and the Architectural Drawing classes will explore Autocad and Revit more extensively this year. We'll kick things into high gear applying COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN to your world!!!!

Parents please feel free to e-mail me at kstone@northschuylkill.net with questions, comments, or concerns!! I always value and appreciate your input!!
