ACE at Hopewell is back! Three meetings into the year with ACE Mentor Program of Charlotte, and they have already:
1. Built rapid prototypes with limited materials and tight design constraints
2. Designed cardboard chairs, then put them to the test
3. Tackled an architecture-focused mini RFP, presenting their ideas to working architects and engineers
They solved real problems, defended their designs, and communicated like professionals. We could not be prouder of the work they are putting in, and the year is just getting started.
Thank you to our mentor team for making this possible.
Interested in joining? Reach out to Mr. Desmond.

Teacher workday didn’t stop our students from celebrating Manufacturing Day!
Our students toured Bürkert USA, worked through hands-on stations, and reconnected with the same professionals who’ve given feedback on their projects in our classroom.
Seven years ago, few students talked about manufacturing careers. Today, so many do. Thank you to LaTonya Johnson, Josh Rikard, Chioma Nwakalor, and the Bürkert team for investing in our students! Another thank you to Ms. Baxter and Hopewell Athletics for support with all the logistics!

Mixing. Stirring. Pouring.
Our PLTW Capstone students just started building something that moves without a single motor or gear. 👀

Drop your best guess in the comments- We’ll reveal it after the next pour.

Our CIM students didn’t just see an I-beam on a screen - they held one.
Huge thanks to Stacy Green and Alro Steel for bringing real steel, aluminum, and metal samples into our PLTW Computer Integrated Manufacturing classes. Students examined each one and connected it to the parts they’re designing, seeing firsthand how material choices shape a design. Manufacturability is key!
Industry in the classroom makes all the difference. Thank you, Alro Steel!

72 students. Countless ideas but only 3×3 feet of workspace. And a whole lot of organized paper chaos.

Hopewell’s Stadium of the Future teams moved from research to collaboration - mapping out concepts before a single part gets built.

Coming up with an idea can be the easy part. The real engineering and manufacturing starts when students have to make it work within real-world constraints - agreeing on scale, defending ideas, compromising, turning individual concepts into one team solution where everyone buys in.

That’s the design process Project Lead The Way built our program around. And honestly, that’s the gold in this project for their future- huge thanks to Carolina Panthers and Trane Technologies.

Next up: designing for manufacturability, purchasing materials on a budget, and plenty of iterations along the way.

The Stadium of the Future competition is underway.
Week one was research mode - construction methods, sustainable solutions, and how to solve real-world problems at scale.
Shoutout to Brian Hynes and Tom Seitz for sharing real project experience and fielding tough questions from our students.
Thank you to Carolina Panthers and Trane Technologies for hosting again this year.
Let’s build.

What happens when industry invests in high school students? Incredible things.
We met these students as 9th graders. Watching them walk into real careers? Unmatched.
Huge congrats to Aiden King- full-time job offer from NuBlue as he pursues his electrician career!
Congrats to all interns from Hopewell: Aiden King, Ashley Cruz-Rodriguez, Erick Patricio, Magali Vasquez Perez, Jacqueline Munoz, Calan Hawkins, and Matheau Rhodes 👏👏👏
Thank you to industry partners for opening your doors: ISI Elite Training Cornelius, ChampionTire, FeedNC NuBlue and so many more.
And to Make an Impact Foundation - thank you for connecting education with industry and changing lives.
Opportunities like these don’t just prepare students for careers. They launch them.
