"As an educator and a mother of two elementary school-aged children, I'm thrilled that MBUSD is providing students the opportunity to imagine, create, build, and problem solve in Makerspace. At Meadows, this risk-free, supportive, environment for learning is all the rage. Mustangs love Makerspace!" - Katherine Whittaker Stopp, Ed.D, MBUSD Assistant Superintendent of Educational Services, 2018
