Students in Ms. O’Loughlin’s STEAM class recently took a tour at HCC. Thanks to a grant from Quick Draw, Ms. O’Loughlin’s class has been working on a semester long industrial design project. During their field trip to HCC, students were able to see the plethora of resources they have available to them right in their backyard. Students saw their curriculum come to life and be put into practice. They were also able to meet with the head of Haywood County’s Small Business center, where they learned what it takes to start and maintain a small business. Keep an eye out for Haywood County’s future entrepreneurs!
