Kevin Farrant

Kevin Farrant is the Makerspace Director and Upper School Technology Coordinator at Rye Country Day School, where he leads innovative programs in engineering, design, and STEAM education.

He specializes in developing project-based learning experiences that blend design thinking, digital fabrication, and competency-based learning practices. His students work with the same tools and processes professionals use, from 3D printing and laser cutting to electronics and digital design.

Beyond the classroom, Kevin consults with educational institutions to launch STEAM initiatives, integrate AI tools for teaching and learning, and support the growth of creative, student-centered programs. That practice now extends to small businesses as well, helping teams adopt AI in practical, everyday ways.

A growing part of his work centers on responsible AI. He helps teachers and school leaders get past the hype and build AI practices grounded in sound pedagogy.

His work prepares students not just for the future, but to shape it.

Kevin lives in the Hudson Valley with his wife and two daughters.
