3D Printing and Laser Cutting STEM Club at CMIT South Academy
Overview
The 3D Printing and Laser Cutting STEM Club at CMIT South Academy will provide students with hands-on experience in cutting-edge additive manufacturing technologies.

Our Varsity Volleyball team is on fire! They started the week with a commanding win over Largo HS in straight sets, remaining undefeated at home.

Our boys Soccer team showed grit and improvement, taking on Largo International and Friendly HS this week. While both games ended in narrow losses (2-0 and 3-1), we’re seeing major progress, and we believe that the first win of the season is just around the corner. They face Central HS and Langley Park International next week!
