Makerspaces
The Avon Grove School District has Makerspaces in Penn London Elementary School and Avon Grove Intermediate School. The Makerspaces are located centrally in each school's Learning Media Center (Library) and are open to student, teacher and class access. A Makerspace is DIY lab where people can gather to create, invent, and learn. Please watch this video about our Makerspaces.
