Season 2, Episode 21- Designing the Future: Inside the Engineering Program at LHS

In this episode of Raider Reach, we sit down with three outstanding Lumberton High School engineering teachers—Stefanie Wright, Curtis Moreland, and Kelsey Kemp—to explore the growing engineering pathway available to Raider students. From freshman engineering essentials to senior-level capstone projects, students develop critical thinking, collaboration, and real-world problem-solving skills that prepare them for careers in STEM fields. The teachers share how hands-on learning, CAD design, robotics, coding, and project-based challenges help students connect classroom concepts to real-world engineering applications. They also discuss the importance of “soft skills” like teamwork and communication, which industry professionals say are just as important as technical ability. Whether students plan to pursue engineering in college or simply want to strengthen their problem-solving skills, this program is helping Raiders design their futures.
