Updates for Small Engines Class

Small engines class, taught by Mr. Brent Bloomquist, learn the concepts of engines in the classroom and then disassemble and reassemble working engines. One of the benefits of breaking apart an engine is to see how pistons and valves function. For almost 15 years, the engines have been taken apart and put back together, and some of the parts no longer work or need replacement. Student Aaron Kwiatkowski ('26) and his dad, Tim, worked with Briggs and Stratton Corporation to provide 24 new engines for the class, ranging from 5 HP-24HP. We are grateful to the Kwiatkowski family for facilitating this arrangement and to Briggs and Stratton for generously providing these updates.
