Innovation Center Open House Showcases New Facility
Representing the collaborative vision of the District 108 Board of Education and 
an advisory council comprised of business professionals and industry leaders 

On Thursday, September 24, Lake Park faculty members and students will enthusiastically showcase their new learning environment during a community open house from 4:00 to 6:00 p.m. at West Campus.

All are welcome to attend; guests will have the opportunity to tour the 3,000 square foot, state-of-the-art Innovation Center, observe machinery demonstrations, and attend a brief recognition program from 4:30 to 5:00 p.m. in the high school auditorium.


The Innovation Center is designed to support both curricular opportunities for college-bound students and increasing demand for skilled workers in the engineering and precision machining industries. Momentum began in 2013 when Lake Park became a recognized Project Lead the Way (PLTW) School - the nation's leading science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) program - and secured a $35,000 grant for three years to support implementation. Lake Park was also named a recipient of a 4-year, $50,000 grant from the TMA Education Foundation.
