A local home healthcare worker—and neighbor of Mr. Sieg—needed help while her kitchen was being remodeled. Mr. Sieg and Pierson stepped in and used cupboard doors from the neighbor’s mother to rebuild her kitchen cabinets, applying hands-on engineering and problem-solving skills.
Up next in the project, they’ll be creating homemade drawer slides and constructing matching upper cabinets to complete the set.

Check out the laser-engraved “Still Life of Fruit” design — a classic touch inspired by traditional Midwestern farm kitchens! 🍎🌽✨Another example of how our Engineering Pathway brings real-world learning to life!

When Mr. Chris Dingus needed a modified thermostat bezel for the elementary locker rooms, Engineering student Abi stepped up to the challenge! 🔧📐

Abi measured the original piece with incredible precision, designed a new 3D model in Autodesk Fusion, and used a 3D printer to create a perfectly fitting prototype.

This is yet another great example of real-world learning happening through our Engineering Pathway at Ridgedale.

Mr. Sieg said it’s the most complex and accurate 3D model he’s seen in his 17 years here—and Mr. Dingus couldn’t have been more impressed with Abi’s craftsmanship! 💙✨
