The Webb Schools recently opened the Huang Innovation Wing, a space designed to inspire and empower students in STEM, innovation, and creative problem-solving.

With state-of-the-art tools and collaborative environments, the wing offers Webb students a hands-on learning experience to explore, experiment, and master skills for today’s fast-evolving world.

“This initiative significantly enriches academic opportunities, enabling deep engagement with emerging technologies, fostering groundbreaking projects, and cultivating a spirit of ingenuity that embodies Webb’s forward-thinking approach to education,” according to a press release.

“I’m thrilled to see our students and faculty bring their creativity to life in this interdisciplinary space,” said Webb Head of School Theresa Smith. “By integrating cutting-edge technology into Fawcett Library—the heart of student academic life — we’ve added a new dimension to our curriculum. Faculty are already exploring innovative ways to use these resources across all disciplines, from science to the arts.”

The wing also includes a modern conference room outfitted with 4K screens and adaptable mobile tables, creating the perfect environment for group study and brainstorming sessions. An upgraded projector in Library North enhances the space for film screenings and presentations, further supporting collaborative and creative endeavors.

“The Huang Innovation Wing will help nurture kids’ imagination, extend their reach and capabilities, and challenge them to innovate ethically and well,” said Webb’s Director of Teaching and Learning Resources Mark Dzula.
