My Students
The students at our school are constantly working toward being stewards of our watershed, empowered decision makers, historians and conscientious community members. We are located in south-central Montana, just north of Yellowstone National Park. We are an active, artsy, outdoorsy and environmentally aware community. Being engaged with our "backyard" keeps us connected to our community.
Our daily goal is to explore learning through personal experience.
My Project
Learners need access to 3D models to increase understanding. As we study our emotions and how our brains receive information we identify our sensory inputs. Understanding how our eyes, ears, nose and tongue are able to see, smell, hear and taste creates awareness about the complexity of our brains.
Models are the next best option to the real thing.
Learning to control our behaviors and emotions can be difficult, but if we study what causes our behaviors and emotions we can become more equipped at self-control. Books and videos are excellent tools for learning. Models bring out an "ew, cool" response making engagement levels of students rise.
Half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
