My Project

Every year, seniors work on a project that requires a research paper and an action project. Many students in the engineering pathway chose a classroom redesign and proved that reducing harsh overhead lighting and including plants improved the well-being of students.

I want to give seniors light covers and fake plants to improve the classrooms of their favorite teachers, support the learning environments of their peers, and leave a legacy.

I want students to feel supported in their hard work and show them that they can improve more classrooms.
