Students from MBA and Father Ryan High Schools will be displaying their “park structure” in downtown Nashville on Friday September 19, 2014.
The installation will be at the intersection of Broadway and 5th Ave. on the north east corner (diagonally across the intersection from Bridgestone Arena). The two structures have been painted MBA red and Father Ryan purple!
The structure should be set up by 8:00 and breaking down around 5:00, so all are welcome to come by any time throughout the day. We expect to have the biggest crowd around lunch time, and the students should be showing up after school, around 3:30.
Pictured below are members of the ACE Mentor team that is working on this project.
This team is led by Lindsay Hamilton of Gresham Smith & Partners in Nashville.
ACE Mentor has been present in Williamson County schools for over 11 years and the interest level has grown to an all-time high in 2014.
Our initial registration numbers show 95 students have an interest in this program that promotes STEM related careers in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction world.
Every high school in the district has participated in this program and we are excited to see the interest continue to grow in this school system.
