The Student Support Center has become a hub of activity over the past several years. We are home to our Student Help Desk, our Maker Space classes, Virtual High School classes, Flexible Work rooms and soon our new Student Business Center. We are also a welcoming space where students can come during their study hall to work, collaborate, create, or relax.
Our Student Help Desk provides students with opportunities to explore real-world applications in a variety of technology areas. Students provide technology support to both students and faculty while building valuable technical and professional skills. Participants also receive training in Microsoft Office applications and have the opportunity to earn a Microsoft Office certification, an industry-recognized credential that can benefit them in college and future careers.
In addition, our Maker Space classes provide students with hands-on opportunities to explore creativity, design, and innovation. Students learn to use a variety of tools and technologies including 3D printers, vinyl cutters, heat presses for fabric, mugs, and tumblers, sewing machines, and embroidery machines. These classes encourage creativity, problem-solving, and the development of practical design and fabrication skills.
Students in our Virtual High School program have the opportunity to take elective classes in a wide variety of subject areas. These courses are taught through an online platform by teachers outside of King Philip, allowing students to explore interests that may not be offered during the regular school day.
