Our teachers at Doss have been gearing up for an amazing start to the school year alongside our GE Appliances partners!
This week, we've had the opportunity to tour GEA facilities and learn about industry practices to bring real-world insights back to the classroom. We're excited to bring hands-on, career-connected learning to life through Project Based Learning (PBL) and wish to ensure each Dragon engages in a meaningful, GE Appliances-focused project this semester.
