Bronx Writing Academy, a 175-student middle school in the Claremont neighborhood, recently opened its Verizon Innovative Learning Lab, where students can hone their skills in robotics, circuitry, 3-D object making and more. There are currently six such labs in New York City and 183 nationwide.
Families and community members toured the sunny third-floor room on Sept. 18, which features several 3-D printers, virtual reality headsets, electronic circuit boards, small robots and computers. Teacher resources are also provided.
