Innovation Lab

In February 2024, Intel and Meta collaborated to inaugurate an Innovation and Engineering Lab for Johnstown-Monroe High School students. Collectively, the two labs house approximately $500,000 worth of technology, aimed at fostering new opportunities for students interested in STEM fields and other career paths. These labs are a result of Intel's commitment to supporting positive educational initiatives, following the company's 2022 announcement of the construction of its latest semiconductor fabrication plant. Ohio's Lt. Governor, Jon Husted, joined Meta leaders, school officials, and students at a ribbon cutting ceremony on February 26, 2024, as a result of the creation of the two labs.[4]
