✨ "Picnic With a Purpose" ✨
🏆 2024-2025 Middle School Community Impact Award winning project.
In concluding our celebration and recognition of these outstanding 6th grade students and their teachers, we also need to recognize the community of Elkhorn, Wisconsin and their partnership with Wausau Homes.
The community has truly come together to support their schools and the innovative work happening at Elkhorn Area School District.
Congratulations to everyone involved in this outstanding and ongoing community effort!
🎉 It was a particularly great Friday as PLTW delivered some amazing news to Brady, Julia, Ryan, Brooklyn, Camryn and surprised the entire student body at Elkhorn Area Middle School.
🏆 Their PLTW project, "Picnic With Purpose" won the Middle School PLTW Community Impact Award 2024-2025.

We are finally finished! @PLTWorg Green Architecture houses encompass more skills for S than I ever imagined possible in a curriculum! 6th graders are creative, collaborative, and inspiring problem solvers of our future! #1Herd#Sustainable
3,000,000 Skilled Trade Jobs open in 2028...this is the Class of 2030...they will be sophomores in high school in 2028...an age at which they will seriously be thinking about their future careers. This is why we partner with community businesses, such as Wausau Homes Elkhorn.
Community Partnerships 2024 has begun-my 6th grade @pltworg Ss will be working with Wausau Homes to construct 3 picnic tables to add to our outdoor classroom...all inspired by the skills and knowledge they've gained in Green Architecture! #PLTWProud#1Herd#CommunityPartnerships
���� Our local dealership, Kunes Auto Group, is proud to sponsor the Elkhorn Mini Maker Faire, which I produce and is inspired by our Project Lead The Way programs. 🛠️ Thrilled to chat about it while cruising in a 2023 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon! https://t.co/ADKSGmzvFj #1Herd @PLTWorg
The best partnerships in education are those with businesses that can impact the future of our students! Prodigy Power visited us to talk about solar power, careers, and how we can make a “green” impact locally. @PLTWorg continues to encourage partnerships in Green Architecture!

Which house would you like to live in? Sustainable architecture by 6th grade PLTW Green Architecture students using 4 shipping containers…I love when curriculum is solving real life problems for students. 🏠 #PLTW
Canva, sublimation, and the formation of construction companies to build houses for @PLTWorg Green Architecture moves students beyond the walls of classroom collaboration to a real life simulation. When they ask, “Why are we learning this?” the answer becomes obvious to them!
From pancake photos to learning to solder to Tesla coils to Legos, it’s an honor to produce the Elkhorn Mini Maker Faire! Are you a tinkerer, inventor, innovator, or maker and would like to join us in 2025? We’d love to continue the conversation!
@HeidiHisrich Would you be willing to share the sheet for this? I would love to add it to a project we do to protect penguins. My email is [email protected] if you're willing to share. These are amazing!
