DRAGG VEHICLE GIVEAWAY
Each year, our students present a giveaway vehicle to a local family in need. Our students use the knowledge they acquired to refurbish a used vehicle. Students then go a step further by selecting the local family and hand the keys over. Students use project-based learning to work as a team and accomplish a goal while learning the value of charity, solidarity, and community.
