On Monday, Peter and Andrew, Franklin High School Alum came to JFK to talk about engineering. Peter is a former JFK Ladybug and had Mrs. Williams as a teacher when he was in the 4th grade and he remembers doing the Puff Mobile Project! Andrew went to Oak Street and is the son of our very own Mrs. Leenhouts. They are both Civil Engineers and have agreed to be our "Engineers in Residence this year!! We learned so much and had a great time working with them. They showed us pictures and videos of what they do and talked about all that they do as engineers every day. They worked hard in school and are both pursuing their dreams. Andrew even played for the San Francisco Giants before dedicating full time to his engineering career. We can't wait to share our finished projects with them and are looking forward to when they return in the spring to help us with another engineering project! Thanks, Peter and Andrew!!! You are an inspiration to us. :)Check out the Periscope video on the Twitter feed to see part of their presentation.
