For the past two weeks, Will Schneider and Owen Collier, two seniors from the Friends Academy in Locust Valley, have been spending their Independent Service Program (ISP) time volunteering at Webb Institute.

While at Webb, Will and Owen have been working on a variety of projects. So far, they have created an electric boat, a sailboat and a crane.  In addition to creating some great models, Will and Owen have been assisting in developing the curriculum for Webb’s new Summer Engineering Academy (SEA) Program.

After graduating from Friends Academy this June, both students will be heading off to college. Owen plans to study economics, while Will plans to major in mechanical engineering.
