Spokane Valley Students recently donated dozens of face shields they made in class to a local healthcare facility.
SPOKANE VALLEY, Wash. – Spokane Valley Tech focuses on “beyond the book” learning, teaching technical skills to its students.
“We’re always looking for opportunities for students to apply their skills, because through application they learn more deeply,” explained Spokane Valley Tech teacher Mark Bitz
Bitz found a grant project called “Stem the Tide”, asking students to make face shields to help stop the spread of COVID-19. He immediately brought it to his advanced manufacturing class.
