The FLA Design Group partners with a local business to prototype an innovative product

The Forest Lake Academy (FLA) Innovation and Robotics Lab’s (IRL) Design Group will be meeting with David C. Jaye of Shower Arm Leak Detection Device (SALD) LLC on Sunday June 17, at 12 p.m. to begin the development of an innovative shower head. IRL was approached by Jaye at a fund raising event to 3D print a prototype of the SALD Device that he has earned a patent for (US Patent 9,410,308).
This venture fulfills the vision of the FLA Innovation and Robotics Lab and Florida Conference Office of Education (FCOE) Innovation and Robotics Initiative which is to provide its students with authentic learning experiences that foster deeper learning and student-led innovation. The Design Group is one of several student-led STREAM (science, technology, robotics, engineering, art and mathematics) interest groups that operates out of IRL.

About Us


The Adventurer Club is a Seventh-day Adventist Church-sponsored ministry open to all families of children in grades 1-4. Our mission is to support parents and caregivers in leading and encouraging their children in a growing, joyful love relationship with Jesus Christ.
The first few years of a child’s life sets the stage for their future.  For parents/families of pre-K through fourth grade children, our Adventurer Clubs provide a safe place to encourage the development of the necessary social and interpersonal skills they need, in an environment that promotes Christian values and responsibilities.
Families will learn a variety of topics together, from character building, nature, hobbies, safety, and much more. This club also has parenting tips and resources through the family network and is designed to help you be the best parent/caregiver you can be as you partner with your child and other families to grow your kids to be the best they can be. Most clubs meet twice a month.
