Congratulations to Cameron Ragan, Campbell Wellham, Caroline Lanier, Siddarth Verma, and Stephen Fuller!
Their Treemendous Play House Design/Build submission was selected to be one of several installations that will be on display at Smith Gilbert Gardens this summer. The team will receive $1500.00 to cover any construction costs. Students are from the Introduction to Drafting, 3D Modeling and Architecture classes, and have the rest of the semester to create their design during class.
When complete, their Treemendous Play House installation will be on display at Smith Gilbert Gardens from the end of May - September.

Welcome to the Wheeler High School Drafting and Design Website. Wheeler offers two CTAE pathways in drafting and design:
1) Architectural Drawing & Design - For students interested in Architecture and Interior Design
2) STEM Engineering Drawing & Design. - For students interested in Product or Package Design & Digital Fabrication
Both pathways share Introduction to Drafting and Design as a prerequisite. Students in the introductory course will be introduced to basic hand/board drafting, computer aided design, as well as model making utilizing our digital fabrication lab that houses a laser engraver, 3-axis CNC router, CNC mill and FDM 3d printer. Please click on the course links below for additional information and resources.
Software programs used in class include Autodesk 2017 AutoCAD, TinkerCAD.com, Inventor and Revit. Students may download these programs for free using the Autodesk Education Community Link below.
