RE:   Schools that offer 3-D printing classes

Do you know about the Curiosity hacked Oakland lab on 60th & Telegraph. They are an awesome non-profit that focuses on STEAM education. Their open source programs introduce children to new technology providing hands-on skills, mentorship, family engagement and excitement. They have a 3D printer on site at their location and free drop-in hours on Sundays for interested children & their parents to work together on mentor-led projects. http://www.curiosityhacked.org/blog/oakland/about.html

By the way, Peralta Elementary uses them for after school enrichment. An awesome Peralta mom of a 3rd grade girl created a week-long, all-girl summer camp, entitled, Scientific Adventures for Girls, at Curiosity Hacked this past August that my daughter still raves about. It was a first for a camp like this, and quite successful. Check out Curiosity Hacked and see if might pique your daughter's interest. Definitely keep the camp on file for next summer!
