For the third year in a row, seniors in Nease’s Stellar Academy of Engineering are taking part in the Deck the Chairs charity holiday event. Students are provided with a full-sized lifeguard chair, and tasked with dressing it up for the holidays while representing an assigned theme. This year, with the education-based chairs on display outside the Jacksonville Zoo, and Nease’s has an under the sea theme. Students designed the look of the chair and all of the components, utilizing design software and the equipment in Nease’s Engineering Academy classroom. One of our students even created an original game that can be played online by scanning a QR code posted in front of the chair. All of the Deck the Chairs entries will be on display until January 1st. If you visit the Jacksonville Zoo during the holiday season, be sure to keep an eye out for Nease’s chair!
