First Ever Foothill Maker Faire a Success

A huge thank you to our Foothill families for so enthusiastically participating in our first Maker Faire!  The evening event was very well attended and a great celebration of our Foothill community. We look forward to making this an annual tradition!  ​

​We had over 100 amazing projects that showed true innovation, creativity, teamwork and perseverance. Students and families interacted with robots galore, new food inventions, art, alternative energy solutions, games, a community Creation Station and competed in a timed Box Build Challenge.

The Foothill Elementary PTO was thrilled to be a part of this event, providing funds that allowed a core group of approximately 30 students to directly participate in the Maker Faire that they might otherwise not have been able to.  We'd also like to extend a huge thank you to TAG advisor Sarah Weisman, the Maker Faire coordinators, Mr. Warshaw and parents Dana James and Margo Mull, and amazing parent volunteers for sharing their time, knowledge and creativity with the Foothill community.  You are so appreciated!
