My Students

We are kind, bright, passionate, energetic and curious people!

Our 8th grade students are a curiosity driven bunch that hold a multitude of amazing qualities!

We are a tight knit, small school that embraces the idea of project/inquiry based learning infused with embracing the unique qualities each student offers.

Our 8th grade class creates projects based on the innate desire to learn and grow and know more about the various topics that interest them, while addressing the learning standards. We love to engage in field studies that support our learning and appreciate any and all support we can get on our journey. In addition, we also believe that a strong classroom starts with a strong community. We care about how we learn as much as what we learn! We learn and grow through social-emotional learning, growth mindset, academics, and community building.

My Project

These materials will help facilitate hands-on and minds-on learning of science and engineering. With the help of these amazing resource students will experience science in an innovative way!

Learning about Energy, Motion and Physics can be both daunting and unmotivated if not conducted in the proper engaging manner.

These resources will allow students to experiment, design, create, evaluate and apply feedback to their creations, all while they are applying scientific concepts.

Please consider supporting our students in their learning by providing hands-on resources that allow their minds to not only learn, but explore and create.
