We invite you and your High School to participate in a FREE county wide supported hands-on learning experience that connects your students and will set them up for success. We seek progressive high schools that want to encourage and provide technical career exploration and invest in their student’s future by exposing them to a fun, dynamic challenge called Project GRILL.

Project GRILL is to excite and entice high school students to learn engineering and manufacturing skills through the design and construction of a grill. The project’s capstone will include the unveiling of each team’s grill to allow parents, employers, high school counselors, teachers and the public an opportunity to enhance their knowledge about technical careers and college opportunities.

Project GRILL will allow students to explore and experience 30 weeks of hands-on learning and technical competencies associated with foundational engineering and manufacturing skill sets. The students will experience the full range of production from project management, team building, design, fabrication, finishing, assembly, quality, and testing. In addition, all students who meet course requirements will earn up to three elective credits at Lakeshore Technical College (LTC). This is a value of nearly $400.00 per student.
