There once was a library and over time it has been transferred into the Hub. The Hub is run by Mr. Malkus, Mr. Novak and Mrs. Buettner. While the Hub still runs as a fully functioning library, there are several additions that have been added to make it a space for innovation, design, creation and multi-media. Mr. Malkus is in charge of “The Shop”. In the shop, you can find a laser engraver with a rotatory attachment, Two 3D printers, A vinyl cutter, a vinyl/printer cutter and a t-shirt press. ANY student at Kenston High School that wants to create something awesome in the hub is able to. Mr. Novak is in charge of the media section of the hub. This includes the multi-media class, a green screen, Multiple cameras for videography and tools and gadgets to go along with it. Last but not least is our trusty Hubrarian Mrs. Butner. Mrs. Butner is in charge of checking out books to students and can also help you with Chromebook problems in some cases. The Hub is a great way to explore your creativity at Kenston High School.

- A mind blowing machine to watch run. The laser engraver allows a student to laser engrave almost any material with any design. The laser engrave also comes with a rotatory attachment so students can engrave round objects such as water bottles!
-
- The vinyl cutters best friend, the t shirt press. With the t shirt press, students create a logo or design and print it through either one of the vinyl cutters. Then place the piece of clothing on the t shirt press with the design on top, press the design onto the shirt to transfer the design from the vinyl backing to the clothing
-
- All students have access to two great 3D-printers. One printer can even print in multiple colors. Student have used these printers to make many things such as bobble heads of them self, small buildings they designed and snowboard mounts.
-
- The Hubs newest addition, a vinyl printer/cutter. With this machine you can print and cut almost any material to make stickers, banners, posters and much much more.
-
- Still a hub favorite, the vinyl cutter. With this machine, a student prepares a roll of vinyl and the machine cuts the vinyl to make single color stickers.
