LCD Informance and PBL expo. Our related arts teachers planned a unit in which our students answer the question “How might we as students of a global school bring the culture of Spain to our community?” Well done teachers and students!

It’s been a big week! First our fifth grade PBL answered the question , “What circumstances push people to create new inventions?” After some project mentorship from TVA , our inventors investigated a problem in their lives and created prototypes to solve those problems. #design

Our first club day was a success! Finding a hobby, a passion or a career choice is valuable work. Comic writers, pen pals, reading buddies, and much more!
